JUSTICE MAHESH GROVER Present:- Mr. Arun Yadav, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. Harish Rathee, Sr. DAG, Haryana Mr. R.D.Yadav, Advocate for respondent no.3. MAHESH GROVER, J Reply by way of written statement on behalf of respondent no.3 has been filed in the Court today and the same is taken on record. A copy thereof has been supplied to the counsel opposite. This is a petition under Section 226/227 of the Constitution of India praying for issuance of writ in the nature of certiorari for quashing the impugned orders dated 27.2.2006, 24.10.2007 and 21.12.2009 passed by Collector, Rewari, Commissioner, Gurgaon and Financial Commissioner, Haryana, Chandigarh respectively. The solitary grievance of the petitioner is that the post of Lambardar is meant for reserved category which is borne out from Annexure P-1 i.e report of the Tehsildar to that effect. In the reply which has been submitted by the respondents – State of Haryana by way of an affidavit of Ajit Balaji Joshi, IAS, Deputy Commissioner, Rewari it is submitted that report upon which reliance has been placed by the petitioner CWP no. 13179 of 2010 (O&M) 2 was submitted due to inadvertence and in fact the same Tehsildar subsequently submitted the correct report showing that Sheoratan was a Scheduled Caste candidate but was appointed on a general seat. This report was submitted in the year 2005 and subsequent thereto on 27.2.2006 respondent no.4 was appointed as a Lambardar by then Deputy Commissioner which appointment has been upheld by the subsequent orders which have been impugned before this Court. The petitioner has not been able to controvert this fact, neither he has filed any affidavit to show that the averments made in the aforesaid affidavit are incorrect. In this view of the matter, when there is no material to controvert the stand of the respondents in the shape of any counter affidavit, the instant petition is held to be without any merit and the same is hereby dismissed.
