J U D G M E N T The petitioners are workers engaged by the contractors employed by the 1st respondent-Company. According to the petitioners, they are entitled to preference in appointment to the posts of unskilled junior workers. But, in view of Ext. P4 erratum notification issued by the Government on Ext. P3 order granting preference, the petitioners are deprived of that preference, is their contention in this writ petition.
