Nature of Litigation

Service matter - regularisation of employment

Remedy Sought

Petitioner seeks a writ of mandamus directing the fifth respondent to direct respondents 2 and 6 to permit her to work as a Pharmacist at Postal Dispensary, Tiruchirappalli based on her earlier appointment and continuous service from the year 2001, and to consider her representation dated 01.04.2019.

Filing Reason

Petitioner was not permitted to work after the merger of postal dispensaries with CGHS, as she was considered an outsider and not a permanent employee; her service had never been regularised despite long continuous service.

Submissions/Arguments

The petitioner contended that she was orthopaedically handicapped, appointed in a leave vacancy as a Pharmacist, never regularised despite working continuously for over ten years, and that the respondents wrongly interpreted the merger order dated 21.12.2018 to exclude her, treating her as an outsider.

Judgment Excerpts

This writ petition has been filed directing the fifth respondent to direct the respondents 2 and 6 to permit the petitioner to work as a Pharmacist, at Postal Dispensary, Tiruchirappalli based on her earlier appointment and continuous service from the year 2001 by considering her representation, dated 01.04.2019. The above said merger order permitted only the permanent employees not for the outsiders.
