Learned counsel for the petitioner states that the relief No. 1, whereby the direct recruitment has been challenged, has become infructuous, as the selection process is already over. As far as the relief No. 2 relating to regularization in service is concerned, it is pertinent to mention here that the petitioner, who is engaged on a consolidated salary, has sought regularization in service in a grant in aid institution. 3. In view of the principle of law laid down in Secretary State of Karnataka Vs. Uma Devi, reported in (2006) 4 Supreme Court Cases, Pg. 01 wherein it has been held that the workers on daily wages or the persons who get employed without undergoing regular selection process, should not be permitted to be absorbed or regularised against the constitutional scheme of public employment, this Court is not inclined to issue direction to regularize services of the petitioner, as such, the petition is liable to be dismissed. 4. The writ petition is dismissed. Interim order, if any, stands vacated. (All pending applications also stand disposed of). Dt. 02.12.2006 (Prafulla C. Pant, J.) S
