CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AJAI LAMBA PRESENT: - Mr. Sonia G. Singh, Advocate, for the petitioner. . . . AJAI LAMBA, J (Oral) This petition has been filed under Article 226/227 of the Constitution of India praying for issuance of a writ in the nature of mandamus directing the respondents not to substitute the services of the petitioner who is serving as Lecturer in Computer Science Engineering (Engineering Wing) with another person in same capacity i.e. temporary basis. It has been pleaded that an advertisement had been issued which is an indication that the petitioner would be replaced by person serving on temporary basis which would be against the law settled by this Court. CWP No.16836 of 2009 [2] The petition has been filed merely on an apprehension and therefore, I find it to be premature. The petition is disposed of as premature, however, with direction to the respondents to serve notice of 10 days in case the petitioner is required to be replaced by another Lecturer on temporary basis. (AJAI LAMBA) November 04, 2009 JUDGE avin 1. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 2. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest?
