He was engaged on casual basis. Therefore, he seeks appropriate direction to appoint him if necessary, by extending the time of the panel. 3) The prayer as made by the petitioner cannot be granted by this Court inasmuch as the petitioner has no right for appointment. Mere placing him in the panel does not confer him a right to seek appointment. 4) Under these circumstances, I do not find any reasons to interfere with the matter. The writ petition is, therefore, dismissed. No costs. __________________ G.BIKSHAPATHY.J., Dt.24.02.2005 tjs To 1. The Chairman, Indian Air Lines, Delhi. 2.
