Petitioner Versus State of Haryana and others ............Respondents CORAM:HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE M.M. KUMAR HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE K. KANNAN Present: Mr. M.K. Sangwan, Advocate for the petitioner. 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? K.KANNAN J. **** The petitioner seeks through this writ petition a direction at our instance to the State of Haryana and its functionaries that rule of reservation shall be applied to recruitment for Guest Faculty in educational institutions. 2. The petitioner himself is an aspirant to a post for an opening as a Guest Faculty coming within the jurisdiction of the District Education Officer, Yamuna Nagar. His grievance is that he has information that the respondents are going to make appointments without following the reservation policy. We are of the view that the petition deserves at the threshold as wholly incompetent in view of the fact that reservation itself is not a fundamental right but it is only a privilege and a facility which the Constitution enables the Government to make in the matter of education and public employment. A matter of policy is never a matter of judicial intervention. We do not intend to be detained by any pontification on the respective roles of the executive and the judiciary but suffice it to say that the subject which the petitioner seeks for our intervention is not in our own C.W.P. No.21617 of 2008 -2- turf. 3. The petition is, therefore, deserves to be dismissed. (M.M. KUMAR) JUDGE (K. KANNAN) JUDGE December 23, 2008 Pankaj*
