She claims to have been engaged for various periods. So also the 2nd petitioner claims that she was an Anganavadi helper attached to the same Anganavadi. They referred to Exhibit-P1 issued by the Government, which require the District Officer to regularise the services of Anganavadi Workers. They also referred to Exhibit- P2 Government Order in this regard. Apparently, certain persons similarly situated have been regularised. They have filed Exhibits P3 and P4 before the 3rd respondent indicating their claims. Learned Government Pleader on instruction submits that the petitioners may not be entitled to regularisation. Learned counsel for the petitioners refers to Exhibit-P5, which according to him evidences the fact that juniors to petitioners have been appointed as Anganvadi Helpers. W.P ( C) No. 28206 of 2007 2 After having heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Government Pleader, this writ petition is disposed of directing the 3rd respondent to look into the claims of the petitioners in the light of the relevant Government Orders and take appropriate decision thereon, within two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
