IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No. 18138 of 2010 DATE OF DECISION: JULY 27, 2011 Rammi Ram .....Petitioner VERSUS State of Haryana & others ....Respondents CORAM:- HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE RANJIT SINGH PRESENT: Mr. Raman B Garg, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. Harish Rathee, Sr. DAG, Haryana for the State. **** RANJIT SINGH, J. Since there is serious dispute in regard to the appointment and nature thereof, the claim of the petitioner for salary cannot be gone into the exercise of writ jurisdiction. The petitioner will have to show that he was appointed as part time employee on the post of sweeper and he has not been paid any salary. However, he is entitled to claim salary or any other benefit on account of his appointment by leading evidence in a proper form. This dispute arises in view of the stand taken by the respondents that the petitioner was appointed by the Principal and was paid salary after collection from the villagers. If this is not so, the petitioner will have to prove this fact for which he may have his alternative remedy of approaching Labour Court or the Civil Court, where this factual controversy can be adjudicated. The petitioner is, therefore, relegated to the remedy of approaching Labour Court or the Civil Court as per law to claim the same relief. The writ petition is, accordingly, disposed of.
