IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.11500 of 2010 AMIT KUMAR & ORS Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2. 30.7.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and the State. It is not in controversy that in response to an advertisement inviting applications for contractual appointments of Computer Operator, the petitioners have also applied. Nothing further need be stated on that aspect except that their applications are also required to be considered in accordance with law. The second submission is that while the post of Computer Operator is sanctioned and a permanent need of personnel exists, unjustifiably only contractual appointments are being made against such posts. A post of Computer Operator is not a highly specialized or a post of special skills where the Government may have the liberty to make contractual appointment only without filling up the post. If the contention of the petitioners that they are working on such contractual posts for past four years be correct, that itself is sufficient indication of 2 the regular need for personnel to permanently fill up such sanctioned vacant posts. This aspect of the matter is directed to be considered appropriately by the respondents in accordance with Article 14 of the Constitution of India. In so far as the claim of the petitioners for weightage and age relaxation in view of their past experience of four years, as claimed, is concerned, these are administrative matters for the employer to decide when this Court may only observe that the contention of the petitioners cannot be said to be wholly misplaced. The writ application stands disposed with the aforesaid observations and directions. P. Kumar ( Navin Sinha, J.)
