               HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ARUN MONGA

Order 23/05/2024

1. All the learned counsels appearing for respective parties are ad idem that then common controversy raised in this Bunch of petitions already stands adjudicated vide a judgment rendered by a Coordinate Bench of this Court at Jaipur in Ram Chaturvedi & Ors. Vs. State of Rajasthan & Ors. : S.B. Civil Writ Petition No. 1474/2023 decided alongwith other connected matters on 28.08.2023.

2. In view of the consensus, I see no reason as to why these petitions be also not allowed in same terms as enunciated in the judgment, ibid.

3. It is so ordered.

4. For ready reference the directions/observations made by learned Single Judge in the aforesaid judgment are reproduced herein below:-

"11. Therefore, as a final result, writ petitions are disposed of with following directions:-
(i) Respondents while engaging the Guest Faculty in the session 2023-24 in various colleges/universities under the Raj-CES under Vidya Sambal Scheme, shall give preference to engage the petitioners who have already rendered services as Guest Faculty in this scheme in the previous sessions/years, at previous place of posting or nearby place obviously subject to availability of vacancies in the previous college/university or nearby place as well as after considering the satisfactory services of petitioners.

(3 of 3) [CW-7812/2022]

(iii) After re-engagement/adjustment of the petitioners i.e. previous Guest Faculty in the Vidya Sambal Scheme, against vacancies for the year 2023-24, the remaining vacant posts of previous years, and on the new vacancies accrued in session 2023-24 may be filled by the fresh aspirants in accordance with the criteria of selection prescribed in the scheme.

(iv) It is made clear that petitioners who were already engaged in the previous sessions and are willing for appointment/engagement in the present session 2023-24 in the Vidya Sambal Scheme, are required to apply afresh pursuant to advertisement issued by respondents and his/her re-engagement in the Vidya Sambal Scheme for session 2023-24 would be governed by terms and conditions of the scheme and shall not create any additional equity/claim which is not available in the scheme."

5. Apropos, it is expected of the respondents to take expeditious steps to implement the aforesaid directions given that the same were passed way back in August, 2023.

6. In the parting, I may hasten to add here that in terms of Para No.10 of the judgment, wherein it has been so observed that preference will be given to those Guest Faculty members, whose services were engaged earlier in the previous academic sessions granted, it is expected of the respondents that they shall accord due priority in terms of duration of the work experience rendered by the faculty members.

7. Needless to say, those who have served for longer period will have a preferential right over those who served for lesser duration in past.

8. Allowed in above terms.

9. Pending application(s), if any, stand disposed of.
