Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- ORDER Surya Kant, J. (Oral) The petitioners seek a mandamus to direct the respondents to grant them minimum of the pay scale as Lecturers in the Government Colleges and not to dispense with their services as Guest Faculty Lecturers (Hindi). Notice of motion was issued and in response thereto, the official respondents have filed their counter affidavits. It appears that the petitioners were employed as Guest Faculty Lecturers in the academic session 2006-07 but thereafter, “there is no extra-work load in the college for petitioner No.1”. C.W.P.No .11503 of 2007 (O&M) 2 As regards petitioner No.2, he has already been employed and working as such. So far as petitioner No.1 is concerned, learned State counsel, on the basis of the fresh instructions received by her, states that no advertisement has been issued in any of the newspapers for the appointment of Hindi Lecturer for the academic sessions 2007-08 and 2008-09 as there is no work load nor any vacancy of Hindi Lecturer is available with the department. In this view of the matter, this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the official respondents that as and when the work load requires, the petitioner's claim for appointment of Guest Faculty Lecturer in Hindi, shall be considered in accordance with law.
