IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.12963 of 2009 YOGENDRA THAKUR & ORS Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2. 09.10.2009 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioners and the learned Counsel for the State. The claim in this writ application is for regularization. The petitioners themselves state that they were seasonal workers. The admitted factual status by them is that they are not working after 1998. Long after they ceased to be in service/seasonal service they came to this Court in CWJC No. 607 of 2004 with a claim for regularization. The writ petition was heard along with large number of writ petitions in which the individual facts of a case were not gone into. The matter was referred for scrutiny and examination by a Committee which has now rejected their claim for regularisation. Though learned Counsel for the petitioners sought to persuade this Court that certain others have earlier been regularised and also that the order of the Committee with regard to them was not proper, this Court does not consider it necessary to deal with the aforesaid issues for reasons enumerated hereinafter. The law stands well settled that regularisation is not a mode of appointment. Only in the event that there have been certain procedural irregularities in an appointment otherwise in consonance with law that the irregularities may be cured to lend validity to the appointment. The present writ petition does not even contain the initial order of appointment of the petitioners except a bald pleading that it was in accordance with law. They themselves urge that they were seasonal worker. Additionally, even if regularisation was to be considered, it can be only for one who was still working. Once the master-servant relationship stands concluded any consideration of such persons shall clearly be a case of reappointment and not regularisation. Each case therefore depends on its own factual premise. This Court finds no merit in this application. It is accordingly dismissed. Needless to add that if any future vacancy arises and the petitioners apply their application has to be considered in accordance with law. Snkumar/- (Navin Sinha,J.)
