HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE SUMAN SHYAM
HONOURABLE MRS. JUSTICE MALASRI NANDI
ORDER
Date : 23-01-2023
Suman Shyam, J
Heard Mr. K.K. Mahanta, learned Sr. counsel assisted by Mr. A. Chamuah, learned
counsel for the appellant. We have also heard Mr. U.K. Nair, learned Sr. counsel assisted
by Ms. D. Mahanta, learned standing counsel, GHC appearing on behalf of the respondent
Mr. J. Patowary, learned counsel has appeared on behalf of the respondent Nos. 1
to 52 on the strength of a caveat.
Caveat stands discharged.
This appeal arises out of the common judgment and order dated 05-01-2023
passed by the learned Single Judge in W.P.(C) No. 1376/2019 and W.P.(C) No. 3845/2021.
Page No.# 11/11
It appears that the issues raised in this appeal are substantively covered in the
connected appeal being W.A. No. 05/2023 arising out of the same judgment.
Mr. Patowary submits that in the other appeal the question of validity of the order
of regularization of the services of the appellant in the post of Secretary to the Hon'ble
Chief Justice, the Gauhati High Court is under challenge.
However, we find that the said issue also forms part of the contentious issue arising
in W.A. No. 05/2023. As such, by giving liberty to all the parties to raise the aforesaid
issue at the time of hearing of W.A. No. 05/2023 and without prejudice to the rights and
contentions of either party to urge any plea raised in the present appeal, this appeal
stands disposed of.
