Heard Mr. Rajeev Kumar, the learned counsel for the
petitioners and Mr. A.R.Kisku as well as Ms. Priyanka
Bobby, learned counsel for the respondent State.
2. Since common issue is involved in both these writ
applications as such both are heard together and being
disposed of by this common order.
3. The petitioners have preferred these writ petitions for
a direction upon the respondents to absorb their services as
they are working as Gram Rojgar Sewaks, since 2007
regularly without any break under the authority of
respondent-State.
4. Brief facts of both these applications are that
pursuant to an advertisement invited for appointment on
the post of Gram Rojgar Sewak for different districts of the
State of Jharkhand on the sanctioned vacant post on
consolidated amount, the petitioners have applied and
following the required procedure and the reservation policy,
the petitioners were appointed on the post of Gram Rojgar
Sewak by the competent authority and thereafter they
joined on the said post and are working continuously for
more than 13 years. The petitioners' case for regularization,
in spite of the representations, has not been considered.
Aggrieved with this, the petitioners have approached this
Court.
5. Mr. Rajeev Kumar, the learned counsel for the
petitioners submits that the petitioners have already
worked for more than 13 years and in the light of the
decision rendered in the case of "Narendra Kumar Tiwary v.
State of Jharkhand" [Civil Appeal No.7423-7429/2018]" and
the circular for regularization of the Government of
Jharkhand in terms of the order passed by the Hon'ble
Supreme Court, the case of the petitioners are fit to be
considered. He fairly submits that the petitioners have
already filed representation but no decision has been taken
till date.
6. Learned counsel for the respondent- State submits
that if the petitioners have filed representation/(s), then
these writ petitions can be disposed of for consideration.
7. In view of the above facts and considering that no
decision has been taken as yet on the representation/(s) of
the petitioners, both these writ petitions are being disposed
of directing these petitioners to file fresh representation/(s)
along with all the credentials including the judgment
rendered by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of
"Narendra Kumar Tiwary" [supra] and "Sheo Narain Nagar v.
State of Uttar Pradesh" [Civil Appeal No.18510/2017], (2018)
13 SCC 432 within a period of four weeks from today.
8. If any such representation/(s) is/are filed within the
aforesaid period, the respondent no.3 shall consider the
case of these petitioners in accordance with the rules,
regulations and the guidelines and considering the
judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court as well as the rules
made by the Government of Jharkhand in this regard
within sixteen weeks from the date of receipt of such
representation/(s). If any decision is taken in favour of
these petitioners, the benefit of the same shall be provided
to them within eight weeks thereafter.
9. With the aforesaid observation and direction, these
writ petitions stands disposed of. Pending I.A. if any, also
stands disposed of.
