IN THE HIGH COURT OF HIMACHAL PRADESH, SHIMLA. CWP No. 1883 of 2009. Decided on 24.06.2010. Mula Ram. ….. Appellant. -Versus- State of H.P. and others. …… Respondents. Coram The Hon’ble Mr. Justice Kurian Joseph, Chief Justice. The Hon’ble Mr. Justice Rajiv Sharma, Judge. For the appellant. : Mr. Sanjeev Bhushan, Advocate. For the respondents. : Mr. J.K. Verma, Deputy Advocate General. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Justice Kurian Joseph, C.J. (Oral): The writ petition is filed with the following prayers: “(i) That the writ in the nature of mandamus may be issued directing the respondents to consider the case of the petitioner for regularization with effect from 2002 as per their own policy/scheme. (ii) That the writ in the nature of mandamus may be issued directing the respondents to pay salary of a regular mazdoor to the petitioner with effect from 2002, with all consequential benefits and also they may be directed to pay an interest @ 18% on accrued benefits. (iii) That the writ in the nature of mandamus may be issued directing the respondents to pay pension to the petitioner by counting half of his daily wage service as per the verdict given by this Hon’ble Court.” 2 2. It is seen from the reply-affidavit that the petitioner has been regularized w.e.f. 01.01.2003. The further grievance of the petitioner is that he is entitled to have 50% of his daily waged service counted for the purpose of pension, in view of the decision of this Court in State of Himachal Pradesh and others versus Sarab Dayal, CWP No. 180/2001 decided on 19.7.2007. Learned Deputy Advocate General submits that the matter is pending before the Apex Court. Be that as it may. Since that is not an issue arising in this case, this writ petition is disposed of as follows: In the event of the petitioner filing an appropriate representation before the second respondent, the matter be duly examined by the second respondent and appropriate action, in accordance with law, shall be taken within another four months from the date of production of the copy of the judgment alongwith copy of the writ petition by the petitioner. 3. The petition stands disposed of, so also the pending application (s), if any. Copy dasti, on usual terms. (Justice Kurian Joseph), Chief Justice. (Justice Rajiv Sharma), Judge. 24th June, 2010 (bhupender/awasthi)
