CW 4233/95 //1// IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JAIPUR BENCH ORDER S.B. Civil Writ Petition No.4233/1995 Dr. B.L. Chopra & Ors. Versus State of Rajasthan & Ors. Date of order : 19/02/2009 HON'BLE Mr. JUSTICE AJAY RASTOGI Mr. Riyaz Mazahir, for petitioners. Mr. S.N. Kumawat, for respondent. The instant writ petition has been jointly filed by the petitioners with a prayer that the State Government should be directed to make a corresponding amendment to regularize the services of such Lecturers who are working on ad-hoc basis in view of amendment made under the Rajasthan Education Service (Collegiate Branch) Rules, 1986 vide notification dated 5.4.1995 (Annexure-5). The petitioners were appointed on urgent temporary basis on the recommendations made by the Central Selection Committee in pursuance to the short-term advertisement issued by the respondent- State. Post of Assistant Professor (Lecturer) is included in the Schedule appended to the Rajasthan Medical Service (Collegiate Branch) Rules, 1962 which is a selection post to be filled only by open recruitment through Rajasthan Public Service Commission. It appears from the record and particularly, from Para-7 of the reply filed by the Rajasthan Public Service Commission that all the petitioners have participated in the selection process initiated by the Commission for the post of Lecturer. However, petitioners No.3, 4 and 5 were CW 4233/95 //2// selected and placed in the main merit list in their respective specialty. So far as petitioner No.1 is concerned, his name was withheld and the name of the petitioner No.2 was also included in the reserve list. The regular appointments could be made only in accordance with the scheme of the rules and once the post in question is to be filled in by selection through open recruitment, no other procedure could have been adopted by the authorities in making regular appointments. So far as submission made by the petitioner that the government should be asked to make a corresponding amendment as made in the Rajasthan Education Service (Collegiate Branch) Rules, 1986 is concerned, suffice to say that no parity with the educational service can be claimed by the petitioners and it is always for the authorities concerned to take such a decision. Consequently, this court finds no substance in the writ petition and accordingly, the same is dismissed. No order as to costs. (Ajay Rastogi) J. GovindS/p2/4233CW95Fb19Gnd.doc
