As rightly pointed out by the learned Deputy Advocate General, the regularization can be considered only subject to availability of vacancy. In the above circumstances, this Writ Petition is disposed of as follows: There will be a direction to the second respondent to look into the matter and in case any of the Chowkidars who joined after the petitioner have been regularized in service, the case of the petitioner shall also be considered. It is also made clear that in case any mistake has been committed in regularizing the junior, it will be open to the second respondent to rectify such mistake after giving notice to the affected parties. The needful action shall be done within a period of four months from the date of production of the copy of this judgment alongwith a copy of the Writ Petition, by the petitioner before the second respondent. 2. The writ petition is disposed of, so also the pending application (s), if any. (Justice Kurian Joseph), Chief Justice. March 25, 2011. ( Justice V.K.Ahuja ), (karan/vs) Judge. 2
