WP(C) 1063/2009 BEFORE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE I. A. ANSARI Heard Mr. B. Islam, learned counsel for the petitioner, and Mr. B. J. Ghosh, lea rned Govt. Advocate, Assam, appearing for the respondents. The petitioner, Sri Chanchal Singh @ Chandan Singh, was engaged as a sweeper, in the office of the Commanding Officer, 48 Assam Naval Unit, NCC, with effect fro m 01.07.1985 to 28.02.1986 by the Director of Sports and Youth Welfare, Assam, o n temporary and terminable basis. However, the petitioner was continued to be re tained on the same condition as earlier to work as a sweeper in the said office. A request was made by the Commanding Officer, 48 Assam Naval Unit, NCC, Guwahat i, to the Director of Sports and Youth Welfare, Govt. of Assam, to regularize th e service of the petitioner. No order of regularization was, however, passed. In such circumstances, the question of directing the respondents to pay to the pet itioner regular scale of pay and/or to pay to the petitioner increment as are av ailable to regular employees does not arise. Situated thus, this Court does not find that the petitioner has been able to mak e out a case warranting this Court’s exercise of jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. This writ petition, therefore, fails and shall acc ordingly stand dismissed. Before parting with this writ petition, it is, however, made clear that the peti tioner shall remain at liberty to take recourse to such provision of law as may be permissible for the purpose of obtaining directions to the respondents to reg ularize his service as a one-time measure in terms of the decision in State of K arnataka vs. Uma Devi, reported in (2006) 4 SCC 1.
