THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT PETITIONS NO.17469 of 2001 Dated: 3.12.2010 Between: K.EMELAYAMMA & ANOTHER …PetitionerS And: THE MANAGING DIRECTOR, A.P. WOMEN CO OPERATIVE FINANCE CORPORATION & ANOTHER …Respondents. THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT PETITIONS NO.17469 of 2001 ORDER: The petitioners, employees of the A.P Women’s Co Operative Finance Corporation, assail the action of the Corporation in not regularizing their services and seek a consequential direction to do so. Petitioner-1 entered the service of the Corporation as an Instructor in July 1987 and petitioner-2 was appointed as an Assistant Instructor in the service of the Corporation in September 1991. They were both appointed on a consolidated pay basis. As their services were being continued in the same status they filed the present writ petition seeking regularization in service. Reference was made by them to the cases of P.Yugandhar and Jiddu Satyanarayana Murthy, employees of the Corporation who were similarly situated and who were regularized in service pursuant to the order of a Division Bench of this Court in W.A.824 of 1999 which was confirmed thereafter by the Supreme Court. It is however to be noticed that the Judgment of the Division Bench was based on the principles laid down by the Supreme Court in PYARA SINGH VS. STATE OF HARYANA ([1]). As the law laid down by the Supreme Court in SECRETARY, STATE OF KARNATAKA VS. UMADEVI ([2]) presently holds the field and bars regularization of services of employees who were illegally/irregularly appointed, there can be no direction to the respondent Corporation to regularize the services of the petitioners. It is however stated by Sri Ch.Satish Kumar, the learned counsel for the petitioners, that his clients are still continuing in service and they have also been extended the benefit of time scale. In that view of the matter, the respondent, Corporation cannot continue to exploit the services of the petitioners by denying them regular appointment. There shall accordingly be a direction to the respondent Corporation to consider the cases of the petitioners as and when it undertakes recruitment to vacancies in the relevant posts in future as per their eligibility in accordance with the Rules, duly overlooking the age requirement. The writ petition is disposed with the above direction. There shall be no order as to costs. ______________________ Justice SANJAY KUMAR Date:3.12.2010 Gurc.
