(Oral) The petitioner is aggrieved since he was disengaged after working for about seven years as daily waged Chowkidar. It is seen from the reply that the dis-engagement was on account of regular hand being posted in the place. According to the petitioner, he should have been considered in that post, in view of his long service. It is also submitted that at any rate, the petitioner should get a preferential treatment in case Chowkidar is engaged in the establishment or in the department. We find some force in the submission with regard to the preferential treatment in view of the long service rendered by the petitioner in case, steps are taken for engaging any daily wager in the Department, the petitioner may point out these aspects before the first respondent, in which case, the matter will be duly considered by the first respondent in the light of the observations in this judgment and appropriate action thereon will be taken within another four months. 2.
