Heard learned counsel for the petitioner on interim relief. Drawing attention of this Court towards the various appointment orders, learned counsel for the petitioner contended that the petitioner possessing all the requisite eligibility is working as a Teacher with the respondents since 01.07.2015 and nature of her job is perennial in nature but, to create artificial break, earlier, she was being given yearly appointment which, now has been reduced to be a period of 89 days.

Relying on a judgment of the Hon'ble Apex Court of India in case of Shri Rabinarayan Mohapatra Vs.

person, though appointed on ad hoc/temporary basis, is entitled for regularization and regular pay scale. He submits that in view thereof, the respondents may be restrained not to terminate her services during the pendency of the writ petition.
Taking into consideration the contentions advanced by the learned counsel for the petitioner, the material on record and the judgments of the Hon'ble Apex Court as also of the Hon'ble Himanchal Pradesh High Court, this Court deems it just and proper to restrain the respondents from terminating services of the petitioner till further orders.
