1 198611 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO. 1986 OF 2011 Ravindra Punja Nirbhavne & Ors. ...Petitioners V/s. Union of India & Ors. ...Respondents Mr. Ameya Tamhane with Ms. Seema Sarnaik for the Petitioners CORAM: A.M. KHANWILKAR AND MRS. MRIDULA BHATKAR , JJ. DATE: 8TH APRIL, 2011 P.C.:- Heard the counsel for the petitioners. 2. The argument of the petitioners is that, considering the Terms of Reference, the Tribunal has committed palpable error in rejecting the claim of the petitioners. We are not impressed by this argument. The Tribunal has noted, as of fact, that the entry of the petitioners was neither through Employment Exchange, nor through open advertisement. Besides, the engagement of the petitioners was only casual in nature. In the light of the said finding, the Tribunal proceeded to hold that the petitioners cannot succeed in getting relief of temporary 2 198611 status and regularisation. We find no error in this approach of the Tribunal. The Tribunal, while rejecting the Original Application, has, however, observed that the petitioners can be given due preference in respect of future job for engagement of Seasonal Anti Malaria Lascars on casual basis. 3. This petition is dismissed. MRS. MRIDULA BHATKAR, J. A.M. KHANWILKAR, J.
