11. 1. This matter is taken up through Hybrid Arrangement (Virtual/Physical) Mode.
2. Heard learned counsel for the parties.
3. Even though the present Writ Petition has been filed inter alia challenging order dated 10.08.2021 under Annexure-11, so passed by Opp. Party No.1 but in course of hearing, learned counsel for the petitioners fairly contended that petitioners be permitted to make a fresh grievance before the self-same Opp. Party No.1 for consideration of their claim to get the benefit of regularisation taking into account the judgment
// 2 //
subsequently delivered by this Court on 06.09.2024 in W.P.(C) No.24685 of 2020.
4. Learned Addl. Standing Counsel has no serious objection to the course of action proposed by the learned counsel for the petitioner so also Mr. Tripathy, learned Senior Counsel appearing for O.P. No.5.
5. Having heard learned counsel for the parties and considering the submissions made, this Court while disposing the Writ Petition, grants liberty to the petitioners to make individual representation before Opp. Party No.1 for re-consideration of their claim to get the benefit of regularisation. It is observed that if any such application will be made before Opp. Party No.1 within a period of 3(three) weeks hence, Opp. Party No.1 shall take a lawful decision on the same within a period of 3(three) months from the date of receipt of this order.
5.1. It is further observed that while taking such a decision, relevancy and effect of the judgment dated 06.09.2024 so passed in W.P.(C) No.24685 of 2020 be taken into consideration if it is applicable to the claim of the petitioners. Petitioners are permitted to enclose the copy of this order as well as the judgment passed in the aforesaid Writ Petition before Opp. Party No.1 for compliance. Opp. Party No.1 is directed to take a fresh

decision without being influenced by the earlier rejection so passed by him under Annexure-11.
6. The Writ Petition stands disposed of accordingly.
