----Respondents

HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SANDEEP SHAH (VACATION JUDGE)
[2025:RJ-JD:26860] (11 of 15) [CW-11652/2025]
Order
06/06/2025
1. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the
controversy involved in the present writ petition is squarely
covered by the judgment dated 21.05.2025 passed in S.B. Civil
Writ Petition No.18889/2024 (Dr. Jwala Prasad & Ors. Vs.
State of Rajasthan & Ors.). She further submits that she does
not want to press the prayer as far as the quashing of the
impugned orders specified in the prayer no.1 is concerned and
confines the petition to the relief as granted in the order referred
above. Prayer No.1 is reads as under:-
"The impugned orders dated 07.08.2023 (An.10) 12.08.2023
(An.11) and 21.06.2024 & 21.01.2025 (An.15 & 17) may kindly be
declared as arbitrary and illegal and accordingly be quashed and set
aside with immediate effect."
2. Learned counsel for the respondents is not in a position to
refute the fact that as far as the engagement of the petitioners
under the Rajasthan College Education Society (Raj-CES) Hiring of
Manpower Rules, 2023 (hereinafter referred as "Rules of 2023") is
concerned, the issue has already been set to rest by this Court in
the writ petition of Dr. Jwala Prasad (Supra). The order passed
by this Court in Dr. Jwala Prasad (Supra) is reproduced below:-
"1. Heard learned counsel for the parties.
2. The present batch of writ petitions involves similar
questions of facts and law and, therefore, the writ petitions
are being disposed of by this common order.
3. The present writ petitions have been filed with
multiple prayers, however, learned counsel for the
petitioners confines her prayer to a limited extent that the
engagement of the petitioners Rajasthan Higherade in
[2025:RJ-JD:26860] (12 of 15) [CW-11652/2025]
accordance with the Rajasthan College Education pety (Raj-
CES) Hiring of Manpower Rules, 2023 (hereinafter ferred
the "Rules of 2023"), Instead of "Vidhya Sambal Yojana.
4. For the sake of convenience, the facts of the S.B.
Writ Petition No.6979/2025 (Dr. Sandeep Prajapat &
Ors. V/s The State of Rajasthan & Ors.) are being taken
into consideration for the disposal of the controversy
Involved in this batch of writ petitions.
5. Briefly noted facts in the writ petition are that the
respondents invited applications for the engagement of
teaching faculties on a temporary basis in various colleges
by way of different advertisements in "Vidhya Sambal
Yojana". In pursuance of the advertisements issued by the
respondents, the petitioners filed their applications and
thereafter, they were engaged as teaching faculties in
different colleges. Such engagement was made on a
periodical basis, depending upon the need and availability
of the vacancies in respective colleges. Since the petitioners
were discharging their duties to the utmost satisfaction of
the respondents, their services were continued from time to
time. This course was adopted by the respondents in view
of the position that regular faculties had not been appointed
in the respondent colleges.
The petitioners were engaged under the "Vidhya
Sambal Yojana, a scheme introduced by the State
Government to engage the faculty members on a temporary
and periodic basis to impart education to the students in the
institutions lacking regular staff. Rajasthan High studies of
the students in those colleges were being Since jeffected &n
account of non-fulfilment of the regular faculties, such urse
wis adopted by the respondent-State for engaging the
petitione ys as 'Guest Faculties' in those colleges under the
said scheme. The petitioners were being paid a
remuneration as per the fixed norms of the "Vidhya Sambal
Yojana". However, the petitioners were not satisfied with
the remuneration paid and the terms of the engagement
provided under the said scheme, primarily on account of the
fact that their service conditions were required to be
governed by the Rules of 2023 and, therefore, the
petitioners filed a number of representations to the
respondents seeking benefits enshrined under the Rules of
2023. Since the same was not granted, therefore, the
present writ petition has been filed.
6. Learned counsel for the petitioners vehemently
submits that since the colleges in which the petitioners are
imparting education falls under the Rajasthan College
Education Society (Raj-CES), therefore, their service
conditions should be governed by the Rules of 2023 and not
by the "Vidhya Sambal Yojana". Learned counsel submits
that the State Government, vide order dated 11.07.2022,
has constituted a Society titled as "Rajasthan College
Education Society (Raj-CES)" and the guidelines for the
same have also been framed. She submits that there are a
number of colleges, which have been taken under the
umbrella of the Rajasthan College Education Society (Raj-
[2025:RJ-JD:26860] (13 of 15) [CW-11652/2025]
CES) formulated by the State Government as per the said
order, and the petitioners are presently discharging their
duties in these colleges.
Learned counsel for the petitioners further submits
that since
the colleges where the petitioners are discharging their
duties are within the purview of the Rajasthan College
Education Society (Raj-CES), therefore, their service
conditions should also be regulated by the rules made
thereunder i.e. the Rules of 2023. She also submits that as
per the Rules of 2023, the post on which the petitioners are
discharging their duties is very well reflected in the Rules of
2023, therefore, the petitioners are very much entitled to
the service benefits, including the remuneration, as
prescribed under the said rules. She, therefore, prays that
the present writ petitions may be allowed and the
respondents may be directed to extend the benefits of the
Rules of 2023 to the petitioners.
7. Per contra, learned counsel for the respondents
vehemently opposes the submissions made by the counsel
for the petitioners and submits that, as per the order dated
11.07.2022, the service conditions of the employees
engaged in such Institutions are required to be governed by
the Rajasthan Contractual Hiring to Civil Posts Rules, 2022
(hereinafter referred to as the Rules of 2022). He submits
that the said order dated 11.07.2022 clearly provides that
the engagement of the petitioners will be governed under
the Rules of 2022, therefore, the petitioners, who are
working in the different Colleges, cannot claim the benefits
of the Rules of 2023. He further submits that the order
dated 11.07.2022 is only applicable to the newly
established colleges and, therefore, the benefits of the
same cannot be extended to the petitioners who are
discharging their duties in the Colleges not Coveredunder
the said order. He also submits that the benefits of Rules of
2023 can be extended only to those Colleges which have
been short-listed by the State Government, and the details
of those 371 colleges have been furnished in the Additional
Affidavit filed before this Court, which is taken on record.
Learned counsel for the respondents further submits
that a High Level Committee has been constituted by the
State Government to examine the feasability of continuing
the colleges mentioned in the list of 371 of Colleges under
the Rajasthan College Education Society (Raj-CES). He,
therefore, prays that since the colleges in which the
petitioners are imparting education are not covered under
the list of the 371 Colleges reflected as Rajasthan College
Education Society (Raj-CES) colleges, therefore, no benefits
of Rules of 2023 may be extended to the petitioners as they
are not entitled for the same.
8. I have considered the submissions made at the Bar
and have gone through the relevant records of the case.
9. The short point involved in the present case is that,
by virtue of the order dated 11.07.2022, the State
Government has constituted a Society titled as "Rajasthan
[2025:RJ-JD:26860] (14 of 15) [CW-11652/2025]
College Education Society (Raj-CES)" and also specified the
list of Colleges falling within the ambit of this Society,
Certain guidelines for functioning of the colleges under the
Rajasthan College Education Society (Raj-CES) were also
formulated by the State Government in the said order.
Furthermore, the State Government has also notified the
Rules of 2023 which governs and regulates the hiring of the
manpower on a contractual basis and other conditions of
services psons hired in connection with the affairs of the
Rajasthan Copy that since the Colleges in which they are
imparting education are College ged ngaged ucation Society
(Raj-CES). The petitioners, herein, are imparting education
in different colleges on contract basisider the "Vidhya
Sambal Yojana" and their precise case is Not covered under
the Rajasthan College Education Society (Raj-CES),
therefore, their engagement should also be governed by the
Rules of 2023 rather than the "Vidhya Sambal Yojana".
10. As per the order dated 11.07.2022, the State
Government has constituted the Rajasthan College
Education Society (Raj-CES) in which 371 Colleges have
been brought under its ambit and this court is of the view
that in respect of such Colleges, any exercise of hiring of
manpower is required to be undertaken as per the Rules of
2023. Since, the Rules of 2023 envisage the entire code for
the engagement of manpower, therefore, this Court is of
the considered view that appointments in colleges falling
within the ambit of Rajasthan College Education Society
(Raj-CES) are required to be governed strictly by the sald
Rules.
11. As the petitioners are concerned only with the post
reflected in the rules of 2023 as 'Teaching Associate', this
Court finds no hesitation in holding that the petitioners'
hiring conditions should be governed by the Rules of 2023.
This Court is further of the opinion that all the engagements
being done in Colleges which are falling within the ambit of
the Rajasthan College Education Society (Raj-CES) shall be
governed by the Rules of 2023 and not by the "Vidhya
Sambal Yojana"
12. In view of the discussions made above, the present
writ are disposed of with a direction to the respondent-
State Government to extend the benefits of Rules of 2023
to those persons, who are engaged on the posts that are
covered under the Rules 2023 and are serving in colleges
falling within the ambit of the Rajasthan College Education
Society.
13. It is made clear that the petitioners, serving in the
Colleges which are coming within the ambit of Rajasthan
College Education Society (Raj-CES), shall not be
disengaged till the process under the Rules of 2023 is
initiated afresh.
14. Stay petition and other pending application(s), if any,
also stand disposed of accordingly."
[2025:RJ-JD:26860] (15 of 15) [CW-11652/2025]
3. Accordingly, the present writ petition is disposed of in terms
of the judgment referred to Dr. Jwala Prasad (Supra) and the
petitioners are also entitled to grant of the same benefit as
granted in the judgment dated 21.05.2025.
4. Stay petition shall stand disposed of.
