Petitioner was deployed on contract basis as Junior Assistant-cum-Typist. Period of contract was terminated with effect from 24.10.2004 by order dated 24.09.2004. Fresh notification was issued inviting applications. Petitioner though applied but does not become eligible for seeking employment on contract basis. 2 . There is no challenge made by the petitioner to the order dated 24.09.2004. Therefore, prayer made by the petitioner that he may be permitted to appear in the interview for appointment to the post of Junior Assistant-cum-Typist, which is also on contract basis, is wholly misconceived. Hence we hereby dismiss the writ petition at the admission stage. ____________________ DEVINDER GUPTA. C.J., _______________________ B. SESHASAYANA REDDY. J., Dated: 31.03.2005. VRK. To 1.
