petitioners were appointed on the urgent temporary basis for a
period of 3 months or till the regularly selected employees are
available with the respondent-Department, whichever is earlier.
Learned counsel submits that the regularly selected employees

of the petitioners have been dispensed with vide order dated

still there are number of vacancies available with the
respondent-Department for the post of Lab Technician and
Assistant Radiographers. He, therefore, prays that the
respondents may be directed that in case, there are vacancies
available in the Department and they are in need of services of
the petitioners, the petitioners' services can be adjusted in the
nearby areas of District Pali/Beawar.
5. Considering the limited prayer of the petitioner, the writ
petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondent No.7-
Chief Medical and Health Officer, Beawar & respondent No.8-
Chief Medical and Health Officer, Pali to ascertain the number of
vacancies available with them in their jurisdiction and if they
desire to take the services of the petitioners on the post
available, the petitioners may be adjusted or accommodated to
serve on those posts till the regularly selected candidates are
available with the respondent-Department.
6. It is made clear that if any of the petitioner is not
discharging his duties satisfactorily, the respondents will be free
to discharge him from the employment.

may be permitted to file an appropriate representation before the
respondents in the light of judgment rendered by this Court in the
case of Shruti Moyal (supra) for redressal of his grievances.
4. In view of the above, the present writ petition is disposed of
in terms that in the event of filing a representation by the
petitioner, the same shall be considered and decided by the
respondents at the earliest preferably within a period of four
[2024:RJ-JD:40809] (4 of 4) [CW-16480/2024]
