similarly situated as the Petitioner in Writ Petition No.5867 of 2015
and connected Writ Petitions decided at Aurangabad Bench and
reported in 2019 (2) Mh.L.J.119. SLP filed by the State against the

Review Petition seeking review of the order passed in SLP. The
Review Petition is also dismissed on 08.07.2021. The Petitioners
herein are part of the teaching and non teaching staff. It is not
disputed that these persons have worked for more than 10 years
continuously on their posts.
3 In light of that and for the reasons recorded in the judgment in
the case of Madhukar s/o Bhavranrao Sadgir vs. State of
Maharashtrate reported in 2019 Mh.L.J. 119 , we follow the same
course and pass the following order:

(iv) The respondents shall count the services of the petitioners from their date of appointment continuously for counting ten years of their service.
