ORAL JUDGMENT (Per R. K. Deshpande, J.)
The petitioner working as a temporary employee as per the
order dated 30-8-1978, was terminated from service by an order
dated 18-08-1986 which was the subject matter of challenge before
the Maharashtra Administrative Tribunal in Transfer Application No.
2 Judg. wp 1020.20.odt
26 of 1993 (in Writ Petition No.2103 of 1986) which was dismissed
on 03-01-2002. Hence, this writ petition.
2] It is well settled that a temporary employee has no right to the
post. The order of termination records the reason that the services
of the petitioner are not required after 26-08-1986 in the hospital on
the administrative grounds. We find that the order of termination is
innocuous.
3] The learned Counsel appearing for the petitioner invited our
attention to the order of suspension and certain contemplated enquiry
against the petitioner before termination of his service. The Tribunal
has held that the petitioner was purely temporary, appointed on a
fixed pay and the material placed on record to justify the termination
could at the most constitute a motive and not the foundation for
terminating the service. The finding of fact recorded by the Tribunal
does not call for any interference.
4] The writ petition is dismissed. Rule stands discharged. No
order as to costs.
