(Oral) The writ petition is filed with the following prayer: (i) That writ in the nature of mandamus may kindly be issued, directing the respondents to give daily wager’s status to the petitioner w.e.f. 15.3.2001 and work charged status from 15.3.2011 as Sweeper with all consequential benefits as per part time policy of the State Government (Annexure P-1) since the petitioner was engaged as part time Sweeper on 15.3.1991 and he completed his 10 years’ continuous service on 15.3.2001 and he was entitled to get the daily wager’s status on 15.3.2001 and he further completed his 10 years service on 15.3.2011 as a daily wager and hence, he is entitled to get the work charged status/regularization on 15.3.2011.” 2. There will be a direction to the second respondent/third respondent to take appropriate action in the case of the petitioner in the light of Annexure P-1, policy or any subsequent policy in that regard. This shall be done within a period of one month from the date of the production of a copy of this judgment along with a copy of the writ 2 petition by the petitioner. We make it clear that in case the petitioner is granted daily waged status retrospectively, he shall not be entitled to any consequential monetary benefit in that regard. The period will be counted only for the purpose of his claim for regularization after having worked as a daily wager for 10 years in that manner. 3. The writ petition is disposed of, so also the pending applications, if any. (Justice Kurian Joseph), Chief Justice 21st April, 2011. (Justice V.K. Ahuja), (tr) Judge.
