HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE L. NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.24744 OF 2000 ORDER: Petitioner was appointed as Coal Filler by the Singareni Collieries on 05-05-1995. It is stated that since he has passed ITI in Fitter trade, his services are being utilized as Fitter ever since the date of appointment. He seeks a direction to the respondents to regularize his services as Fitter. 2. Respondents filed counter affidavit, stating that once the appointment of the petitioner is to a particular post, it cannot be regularized in different post. Reference is made to the terms of settlement under different agreements. They denied the averment of the petitioner that his services are being utilized as Fitter. It is stated that when the petitioner made a request, he has been entrusted with the duties of Fitter, having depend on the availability of the work. 3. Heard the leaner counsel for the petitioner and the learned counsel for the respondents. 4. It is not in dispute that the petitioner has been appointed as Coal Filler. At the most, he can seek regularization of his services in that post. The mere fact that he holds the qualification for the post of Fitter, does not clothe him the right to regularize against the post of Fitter. In case, the petitioner feels that he is being exploited by the respondents, he can flatly refuse to discharge the functions of Fitter. The submission made on behalf of the respondents that the functions of Coal Filler are relatedly cumbersome to that of Fitter, cannot be ignored. This Court does not find any reasons to grant any relief to the petitioner. 5. Hence, the Writ Petition is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. ____________________ L.
