(Oral) This petition has been filed in challenge to order dated 2.3.2010 (Annexure P-14) vide which the petitioner, who was promoted as Driver on regular basis, has been reverted to the post of Pump Operator on daily wage basis. It seems that without following the rules, the petitioner got appointment as Driver by way of backdoor entry. After issuing show cause notice, the impugned order has been passed. It transpires that the petitioner joined the service with the respondents as Pump Operator on daily wage basis on 1.9.1996 and served till the time the petitioner was appointed as Driver on 3.11.2004. Civil Writ Petition No.5315 of 2010 2 Learned counsel for the respondent-State contends that the respondents would consider the seniority of the petitioner as Pump Operator amongst daily wage workers and regularise the service of the petitioner on the basis of seniority-cum-merit, in the context of the policy of the State.

In view of the above, the petition is disposed of. September 16, 2010 ( AJAI LAMBA ) Kang JUDGE 1. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 2. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest?
