He was engaged as daily wages since 01.03.1998. According to him, he has been now working regularly against sanctioned vacant posts as there are 17 posts of driver available in Collectorate, Gaya. After the decision of the constitution bench in the case of State of Karnataka versus Uma Devi, the State of Bihar in its notification dated 05.09.2006 has set certain parameters, which would be evident from perusal of Annexure 5. The respondents of the Collectorate, Gaya have initiated a process for regularization of all such persons in the light of 2 guidance laid down by the State Government, Department of Personnel and Administrative Reforms. Even details have been sought for with regard to the service of this petitioner, but no final decision has been taken which compelled the petitioner to approach this Court. From the observations and pleadings made in the writ application as well as some of the documents including Annexure 8, no doubt an exercise has been initiated but such an exercise is required to be taken to its logical end. It will be in the interest of administration and efficiency to decide the issue at the earliest. In this regard the Court gives a direction to the District Magistrate, Gaya that the decision would be taken preferably within a period of four months from the date of receipt/ production of a copy of this order. Accordingly, this writ application is disposed of with the aforementioned direction. Bhardwaj/ (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
