1. Though order of the learned Single Judge is challenged on
the submission that there are various orders passed by the Single
Benches of this Court granting minimum of the pay-scale of the
post in light of the judgment of the Supreme Court in the case of
State of Punjab & Ors. Vs. Jagjit Singh & Ors.: (2017) 1 SCC
148, admittedly, the learned Single Judge has dismissed the
petition on the ground that the appellant is a person engaged by a
placement agency.

2. We are in accord with the view taken by the learned Single
Judge as there is no privity of contract between the appellant and
the State.
3. Relying upon the decision of the Supreme Court in the case
of K.K. Suresh & Anr. Vs. Food Corporation of India & Ors.

State of Rajasthan & Ors. : D.B. Special Appeal Writ No.

claim of continuance in service or payment of salary cannot be
accepted. There is no privity of contract between the appellant
and the State. No appointment order has also been filed.
4. We also find that later on another judgment of the Supreme
Court in the case of R.S. Madireddy & Anr. Vs. Union of India
: 2024 SCC OnLine SC 965 wherein also, this issue was examined.
Therefore, we do not find any reason to interfere with the order
