This Government Order applies only to casual and part time sweepers. From the materials produced by the respondent, it is seen that the petitioner had taken up the work of sweeping on contracts periodically entered into between the petitioner and the respondents. Therefore, the petitioner does not come within the categories made eligible for regularization under the Government Order. For that reason, the claim of the petitioner has to be rejected and I do so.
