IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLATE JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO. 2871 OF 2007 Manjula Makwana and others .. Petitioners Versus The Union of India and others .. Respondents Ms. Suchitra Kamble, for the petitioner Smt. S.v. Bharucha with shri S.M.Shah for Respondent No.1 Union of India. CORAM: J. N. PATEL, & MRS. MRIDULA BHATKAR, JJ. DATED: 6th May, 2009 P. C. . Heard. 2. The petitioners, who were employed on daily wages, seek regularisation in the employment. Learned Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) rightly rejected their application for such regulation by relying upon the decision of the Hon'ble Supreme Court rendered in the case of Secretary, State of Karnataka & others Vs. Umadevi & thers, reported in 2006 (1) SC SLJ 481, decided on 10.4.2006. We do not find any error or illegality committed by the CAT and, therefore, we are not inclined to entertain this petition. -2- 3. Needless to say that in future, if the respondents engage workers on daily wages, they will first provide employment to the petitioners by maintaining seniority list. 4. With this observation, petition is dismissed. ( MRIDULA BHATKAR, J.) (J. N. PATEL, J.) jpc/-
