C.W.P. No. 15057 of 2011 (1) IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C.W.P. No. 15057 of 2011 DATE OF DECISION: 18.08.2011 Narinder Singh and another ..........Petitioners Versus State of Punjab and others ..........Respondents BEFORE:- HON'BLE MRS. JUSTICE DAYA CHAUDHARY Present:- Mr. V.K. Sandhir, Advocate for the petitioners. **** DAYA CHAUDHARY, J. Learned counsel for the petitioners inter alia contends that the petitioners were appointed as Education Volunteers in the year 2008 with the respondents under Sarv Sikhya Abhiyan but their services were terminated on 2.9.2009 and the termination order was contrary to the instructions dated 3.2.2009 as well as 14.1.2010. Learned counsel also submits that there was no complaint against the petitioners and their work and conduct was satisfactory but still their services were terminated. Learned counsel further submits that the petitioners have made representations as well as served a legal notice upon the respondents but no action has been taken on the same. Learned counsel also submits that other similarly situated persons are still working as Education Volunteers and even in some of the cases where the services of such like employees were terminated, they have been re-appointed on the same post and the case of the petitioners is also at par with those employees, who have later C.W.P. No. 15057 of 2011 (2) been reappointed on the post of Education Volunteers. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners would be satisfied in case the legal notice filed by them is decided within some specified time. In view of the above, without commenting anything on the merits of the case, the present petition is disposed of with a direction to respondent No.3 to consider the legal notice dated 1.5.2011 (Annexure P- 9) and necessary order be passed in accordance with law. In case the petitioners are found to be eligible for further appointment, the necessary exercise be done within a period of two weeks thereafter. Disposed of accordingly.
