The Tribunal after considering the length of service put in by the applicants and similarly situated persons disposed of a batch of OAs, MAs and VMAs and the relevant portion reads as follows: “i) The respondents are directed to consider the cases of all eligible Part-time Lecturers who have completed 360 working days in three academic years by 31-3-1998 i.e. the date on which the Scheme came to an end, for regularisation of their services. ii) The respondents are also directed to count Public National Holidays, Maternity Leave etc., on par with other regular employees for the purpose of calculating number of working days to arrive at eligibility for regularisation of services of Part-time Lecturers.” The Tribunal has dealt with the contentions advanced on both sides and passed the reasoned order impugned in the writ petition. In the circumstances, we do not feel it is fit a case for interference in exercise of writ jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. The writ petition is accordingly dismissed. No order as to costs. ___________________________ GHULAM MOHAMMED, J. ___________________ C.V.RAMULU, J. 17-07-2008 bsc
