IN THE HIGH COURT OF UTTARAKHAND AT NAINITAL Writ Petition No. 1264 (SS) of 2008 Dinesh Singh and another …Petitioners Versus State of Uttarakhand and others …Respondents Mr. M.C. Kandpal, the learned Sr. Advocate assisted by Mr. S.S. Chaudhary, the learned counsel for the petitioner. Mr. Subhash Upadhaya, the learned counsel for the respondents no. 2 and 3. Hon’ble Sudhanshu Dhulia, J. (Oral) Counter affidavit filed in the Court is taken on record. Heard the learned counsel for the parties. Learned counsel for the petitioners states that there is no requirement for filing rejoinder affidavit and on the basis of the pleadings already on the record, the writ petition be disposed of. The petitioners are class-IV employees, who were appointed on daily rate basis in a Government Engineering College known as G.B. Pant, Engineering College situated at Pauri Garhwal. When the college was established in the year 1991 in order to have smoothly running of the institution, appointments were made on class-IV post on daily rate basis. The petitioners were also appointed on daily rate basis. In the year 2007 the college issued an advertisement for making appointment on class-IV posts. The petitioners inter alia applied for such posts but thereafter nothing had happened on that. The case of the petitioner is that either their services should be regularized or the selection process, which was already initiated, should be brought to its logical end. The G.B. Pant College in its reply stated that they are unable to proceed in the selection inasmuch as due to the agitation raised by some of the employees of the college. The government took a policy decision as a one-time measure and a committee was established under the Chairmanship of Hon’ble Minister Sri Prakash Pant, who shall look into the matter of regularization of service of such daily rate employees including the petitioners. In view of the committing being constituted, the selection process, which was earlier advertised, could not be completed. The petitioner now, therefore, prayed that it is an admission on the part of the State Government that they have already constituted a committee, which was done way back in the year 2008. The government cannot simply sit on that, as this is not what is expected from a welfare State. On the basis of submission made before this Court, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction that the committee which has already been constituted under the Chairmanship of a Hon’ble Minister must expedite the matter, which is before the Committee and the same should be brought to its logical end as expeditiously as possible but definite within three months from the date a certified copy of the order is produced before the Chief Secretary of the State. The writ petition is disposed of. The counsel appearing for the G.B. Pant College undertakes to inform the Chief Secretary of this order so that the needful be done without any further delay. No order as to costs. (Sudhanshu Dhulia, J.) Dated: 09.08.2011 VKG
