----Respondents
For Petitioner(s) : Ms. Poonam Chand Sharma For Respondent(s) : Mr. Vaibhav Thakuriya for Dr. Ganesh Parihar, Addl.GC
HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SANJEEV PRAKASH SHARMA
Order
25/01/2021
1. Both the counsels are agreed that similarly situated cases
including S.B. Civil Writ Petition No.9051/2020 have been decided
by the Co-ordinate Bench at Principal Seat, Jodhpur wherein the
petitioners have been directed to make representation to the
authorities in the light of the judgment passed in Mukesh Kumar
Khatik Vs. State of Rajasthan & Ors., S.B.C.W.P. No.5049/2014,
decided on 1st September, 2014. Therein, it was held that Security
Guards working with the State Government through the placement
agency ought to be paid their salary directly.
2. Learned counsel submits that upon such representations
having been made, the certain persons working at Kekri, Ajmer
have already been granted the relief of being paid salary directly
by the authorities.
3. I have considered the aforesaid aspect and perused the
order passed by the court in case of Mukesh Kumar Khatik
(supra).
4. This court after considering the judgment passed in Mooli
Devi Choudhary Vs. State of Rajsthan, reported in 2010 (4)
WLC (Raj.) 334 observed as under:
(6 of 7) [CW-2509/2019]
"In view of above judgment, obviously the appointment through placement agency is not proper, but at the same time, the engagement of retired persons is also not in consonance with the constitutional provision because large number of qualified young unemployed candidates are waiting for appointment, therefore, young qualified candidates possessing requisite qualification are better than the retired person and their service can be utilized upon the posts available with the Government on temporary basis. Here in this case, when a conscious decision is taken by the respondents for making regular recruitment and till then to engage the employees on contract basis or by way of recruitment of retired person then why order has been passed to disengage the petitioner to work on the post in question which he was provided appointment through placement agency.
In view of the above this Court disapprove the decision of the Government to engage retired employees on the post in question, therefore, it is held that no retired person shall be appointed on the post in question and if the petitioner's work is satisfactory, though he was appointed through placement agency, then he may be allowed to work said post till duly selected candidates made available as per decision of Mooli Devi's case.
In view of the above, the instant petition is allowed with the following directions:
(i) the petitioner may be permitted to work on the post in question till regular selected candidates made available for the post in question as per the decision taken by the Government;
(ii) no retired person shall be engaged on these regular sanctioned posts;
(iii) the stay is operated in this case, therefore, the petitioner may be permitted to work on the post in question till regularly selected candidates are made available upon the same terms and conditions upon which he was engaged."
5. In view of above, the present writ petition is allowed and the
respondents are directed to continue the petitioners on the post
till regularly selected candidates are made available and to allow
them to receive salary directly from the authorities instead of
(7 of 7) [CW-2509/2019]
Placement Agency. Necessary orders in this regard shall be issued
by the respondents within a period of three weeks.
6. All pending applications also stand disposed of.
