(Oral) The petitioners applied for the post of Multipurpose Health Worker (Male) in pursuance to advertisement issued in the year 2001. Learned counsel submits that the names of the petitioners were kept in the waiting list and as the entire selections have not been finalized as yet, therefore, they are entitled to be appointed as Multipurpose Health Worker. After hearing counsel for the petitioner, we are of the considered view that the advertisement for recruitment of various posts including 400 posts of Multipurpose Health Worker (Male) was issued in the year 2001. The waiting list cannot remain effective after 7 years of the issuance of the advertisement. No merit. Dismissed. ( ASHUTOSH MOHUNTA ) JUDGE ( RAJAN GUPTA ) JUDGE 25.11.2008 rupi
