1 FARAD CONSTITUTION SHEET NO. IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY NAGPUR BENCH AT NAGPUR WRIT PETITION NO. 4603/2009 (Zilla Parishad, Amravati ..vs. Suresh Gade and another) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court's Orders or Court's or Judge's Orders directions and Registrar's orders. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CORAM:- B.P. DHARMADHIKARI, J. DATE:- NOVEMBER 10, 2009 Heard. The respondent was in service from 1970 till 2007 and he filed claim for gratuity before the competent authority, which has been allowed. The defence of petitioner that he was contractual employee has not been substantiated before the said authority. In any case, the authority has found that from 1982, he was appointed on regular establishment. Learned counsel for petitioner has relied upon the judgment of Hon’ble Apex Court reported at A.I.R. 1995 SUPREME COURT 962 in the case of Dr.Arundhati Ajit Pargaokar ..vs. State of Mah. and others ; to contend that temporary government servant is not entitled to gratuity. The judgment does not support any such proposition. It considers provision of Temporary Government Servants Extension of Permanency 2 Resolution (1975) and three conditions for regularization. Learned counsel for petitioner states that petitioner has got statutory remedy of filing appeal against the order of competent authority. If any such remedy is still available to petitioner, the petitioner is free to take recourse to it. I am not inclined to interfere in the matter in writ jurisdiction. Writ Petition is, therefore, dismissed. No costs. JUDGE diwale.
