IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. L.P.A. No.1370 of 2009 (O&M) Date of decision: 19.3.2010 Sandeep Kumar -----Appellant Vs. State of Haryana and others -----Respondents CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ADARSH KUMAR GOEL HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ALOK SINGH Present:- Mr. Shalender Mohan, Advocate for the appellant. --- Adarsh Kumar Goel,J. 1. This appeal has been preferred against order of learned Single Judge dismissing the writ petition of the appellant against his being relieved from the post of Guest teacher after having rendered total service of five months – four months in rural area and one month in urban area. Reason for relieving the appellant was that regular appointment was made to the post of lecturer. 2. Contention raised in support of the writ petition was that regularly appointed lecturers had first to be posted in rural LPA No.1370 of 2009 (O&M) area under the policy and they could not be straightaway posted in urban area. 3. Learned Single Judge rejected the contention and held that policy of posting could not create a right in favour of the petitioner and merely because of that policy, there could not be absolute bar of a regularly appointed person being allowed to join in urban area. 4. We have heard learned counsel for the appellant and perused the record. 5. The appellant being only a guest teacher, he could be relieved from the said job on joining of a regular teacher. There was no absolute bar to a regular teacher being appointed against a vacancy. Policy is merely a guideline and in absence of violation of any right of the appellant or malafides, we do not find any ground to interfere with the view taken by learned Single Judge. 6. The appeal is dismissed. (Adarsh Kumar Goel) Judge March 19, 2010 (Alok Singh) ‘gs’ Judge 2
