IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No.8026 of 2010 Date of Decision : May 05, 2010. Balbir Singh and others .....Petitioners versus State of Punjab and others .....Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.G.P.Vashist, Advocate, for the petitioners. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) The petitioners were appointed as Instructors in various Polytechnic Wings in District Hoshiarpur on consolidated pay under the Scheme run and funded by the Central Government. Their services were later on dispensed with as the said Scheme itself came to an end. They now seek a direction to the respondents to re-employ them on priority basis as some new Scheme has been launched by the Community Polytechnics at Hoshiarpur. In this regard, the petitioners are said to have served the official respondents with legal notices dated 15.2.2010 and 20.3.2010 (Annexures P-7 & P-8) but no response has been received so far. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioners and without expressing any views on the merits of the petitioners' claim, I deem it C.W.P.No .8026 of 2010 2 appropriate to dispose of this writ petition with a direction to respondent No.3 to take cognizance of the above-mentioned legal notices and redress the petitioners' grievances by passing a speaking order, preferably within a period of three months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. Ordered accordingly. Dasti. May 05, 2010 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
