THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 20/03/2007, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: K.K.DENESAN, J. ======================== WP(C).No.7298 OF 2007-R. ======================== Dated this the 20th day of March, 2007. J U D G M E N T The petitioners state that they are working as daily rated employees of the Parassala Pig Farm during the last one year. It is learnt, according to the petitioners, that steps are being taken by the respondents to regularise the services of the daily rated employees. The petitioners apprehend that such regularisation will not be done in the case of those employed on temporary basis. It is the contention of the petitioners that as and when orders of regularisation are passed seniority shall also be taken into account. 2. Though it is stated in the writ petition that requests have been made before the respondents to regularise the petitioners in service, having regard to their seniority and service, no material is produced to show that any such request has been made. Hence the writ petition is disposed of with the observation that WP(C).No.7298 of 2007. 2 the petitioners may file representation without delay, before the concerned respondent and if any such representation is received, the same shall be considered and disposed of in accordance with law by the competent authority.
