896/2004 Hon'ble P.C.Verma,J. Heard Sri M.C. Kandpal, learned Sr. Advocate for the petitioner and Sri Nand Prasad, learned Standing Counsel for the respondents/State. The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the petitioner has worked from 01.9.1980 to August 2002 as Shramik in the Forest Department on daily wages. Thereafter he was restrained to work. The petition was filed in the month of August 2004 seeking writ of mandamus commanding the respondents authorities to permit the petitioner to continue work and also to regularize the services of the petitioner. It is further contended that the names of juniors to the petitioner have been included in the list of employees who are being considered for regularization. The learned counsel for the petitioners submitted that the petitioners' case is squarely covered by the law laid down by the Apex Court in Putti Lal's case. Therefore, the respondents are directed to regularize the services of the petitioners in accordance with the rules framed by the Forest Department known as Uttaranchal Forest Department Regularization (on Group D posts of daily wagers appointment) Rules, 2003, if the petitioner fulfils other requirements. With the aforesaid observation, the petition is disposed of finally. (P.C.Verma,J.) 19.11.2005 P.Singh
