RESPONDENTS' EXHIBITS: N I L /TRUE COPY/ P.A.TO JUDGE Kss K.SURENDRA MOHAN, J --------------------------------------------- W.P.(c)No.26604 of 2011 --------------------------------------------- Dated this the 13th day of October 2011 JUDGMENT The petitioner has filed this writ petition alleging that he is working as a Driver in the District Treasury Office at Kasargod, that he has been so working continuously from December 2008 and that steps are being taken to terminate him from service. Though he is working on daily wages, he seeks the issue of appropriate directions to the effect that he shall be terminated only by a regular hand. 2. The Government Pleader, on instructions, submits that the petitioner is not working in any regular post at the District Treasury Office, Kasargod. He is only engaged occasionally as and when such need arises. Since the petitioner has not been appointed to any regular post, there is no question of any regular hand being appointed. For the above reason, it is submitted that the petitioner is not entitled to claim any of the reliefs sought Wpc nO.26604 OF 2011 2 for in this writ petition. 3. Since the post to which the petitioner has been appointed is not a regular post, there can be no appointment of any regular hand in his place. The petitioner, who was being engaged occasionally to satisfy temporary needs, has no right to claim any of the reliefs sought for in this writ petition. This writ petition fails and is accordingly dismissed. 4. It is made clear that nothing in this judgment shall prejudice the right of the petitioner to be considered for appointment to any regular post that may arise in future.
