It is not in dispute that the petitioner was appointed as helper in a research scheme entitled “ Oil Seeds Processing Network” sponsored by ICAR, New Delhi. The said scheme was a time bound programme and appointments made under that scheme were outside the purview of the respondent-University. Petitioner herein, who was working as Lab Assistant on temporary basis, applied for the post of Helper under ICAR scheme and was placed in the second place and some other person was appointed. However, in 1992 when the said post fell vacant, petitioner was appointed in the scale of Rs.740-1150. In view of the above facts, no infirmity can be found with the order dated 31.3.1994 impugned in the instant writ petition. The scheme having come to an end, petitioner service was liable to be terminated. It is not the petitioner’s case that while terminating his service as Helper, services of some other similarly situated employees is continuing under the ICAR scheme. I, therefore, find no merit in the contention of the petitioner that his termination was illegal or that he is entitled to continue as Helper in the same scale of pay. The writ petition is accordingly liable to be and is hereby dismissed. Be it clarified that this Court has not gone into the question of regularization of service based upon G.O.Ms.No.212. Such question is left open. Mdaa 20.1.2005.
