IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. LPA No. 781 of 2010 Date of Decision: July 8, 2010 State of Haryana and another …Appellants Versus Dr. V. Saraswati and others …Respondents CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE M.M. KUMAR HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE A.N. JINDAL Present: Ms. Mamta Singhal Talwar, AAG, Haryana, for the appellants. 1. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 2. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? M.M. KUMAR, J. The instant appeal is directed against judgment dated 4.12.2009, rendered by the learned Single Judge in CWP No. 6959 of 2009. It has granted the benefit of notification dated 8.12.2000 (P-4), to the petitioner-respondent No. 1 with regard to counting of her service rendered as Lecturer from 2.12.1985 to 30.9.1987. It is not disputed that the petitioner-respondent No. 1 without any break has joined as a Lecturer in Zoology in Gita Vidya Mandir Girls College, Sonepat on 5.10.1987. The reason for not joining on 1.10.1987 was that there were holidays from 1.10.1987 to 4.10.1987. The only issue before the learned Single Judge was that she was not covered by the instructions dated 8.12.2000 because she was appointed on a consolidated salary of Rs. 1,600/- and not in the pay scale of Lecturer. However, the learned Single Judge referring to the order of her confirmation in service, has given a categorical finding that she was confirmed in the pay scale LPA No. 781 of 2010 of Rs. 700-1,600. On that basis, learned Single Judge has found that the post and pay scale of the petitioner-respondent No. 1 were equivalent to that of a Lecturer. Having heard learned State counsel we are of the considered view that no exception has been provided to interfere in the opinion expressed by the learned Single Judge in the impugned judgment. It does not call for any interference. The appeal does not warrant admission. Dismissed. (M.M. KUMAR) JUDGE (A.N. JINDAL) July 8, 2010 JUDGE Pkapoor 2
