WRIT PETITION No.28103 of 2021
ORDER:
This writ petition is being disposed of at the admission stage
with the consent of both parties.
This writ petition is filed seeking the following relief:
"......to issue a writ, order or direction especially one in the nature of writ of mandamus declaring that (a) the action of the respondents in not regularizing the services of the petitioners from the date on which they completed the required service in terms of judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Umadevi Vs, State of Karnataka as illegal and arbitrary, violating Articles 14 and 16 of the Constitution of India (b) further declare that petitioners are entitled for regularization of their services from the date on which they completed required service in terms of the judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court with all consequences benefits .....".
Heard Sri Srinivasa Rao Madiraju, learned counsel appearing
for the petitioners and the learned Government Pleader for
Services-II appearing for the respondents.
It has been contended by the petitioners that they are
working in different cadres with the respondents and they have
completed more than ten years of service and they are entitled for
regularization of their services in terms of the judgment of the
Hon'ble Supreme Court in State of Karnataka and Others Vs.
Umadevi1 and in fact the 4th respondent has recommended their
cases for regularization to the 3rd respondent and the
recommendations submitted by the 4th respondent are pending
before the 3rd respondent. But, so far, the 3rd respondent has not
1 2006 (4) SCC 1
forwarded the proposal submitted by the 4th respondent to the
State Government.
Therefore, learned counsel appearing for the petitioner had
contended that appropriate orders be passed in the writ petition
directing the 3rd respondent to forward the proposal submitted by
the 4th respondent to the State Government within a reasonable
period of time and further direct the State Government to pass
appropriate orders in accordance with law. Further, the petitioners
may be permitted to submit a detailed representation to the State
Government, so as to enable the State Government to consider the
same and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law.
Learned Government Pleader appearing for the respondents
had contended that the respondents are not disputing with regard
to the proposal submitted by the 4th respondent for regularizing the
services of the petitioners to the 3rd respondent and the 3rd
respondent would forward the proposal to the State Government
within a reasonable period of time and thereafter, the State
Government will consider the case of petitioners and pass
appropriate orders in accordance with law.
This Court, having considered the rival submissions made by
the parties, is of the considered view that this writ petition can be
disposed of directing the 3rd respondent to forward the proposal
submitted by the 4th respondent to the State Government within a
reasonable period of time, preferably within a period of eight weeks
from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Thereafter, the
State Government shall consider the proposal submitted by the 3rd
respondent and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law by
duly considering the representation, which is likely to be submitted
by the petitioners, in another three months thereafter. It is needless
to state that the petitioners are permitted to submit a detailed
representation to the State Government within a period of two
weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
With the above directions, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs.
Pending miscellaneous petitions, if any, shall stand closed.
