Ehsan Ellahi, Representative for Appellants. DECISION It appears that the present appellants were, in the employ of the KDA for a number of years, entrusted with the maintenance of the amenity Plots, Parks, Playgrounds and Recreation Grounds of the KDA. On or about 12‑12‑1991, in pursuance of the Government Policy decision the KDA had handed over the possession of these plots to the KMC with all the maintenance staff attached to the same. It is also clearly made out that all the terms and conditions on which the appellants had been employed by the KDA are still available on them even after the transfer. So all that has happened is that they have been handed over from one employer to another employer and without any loss of seniority or any other advantage available to them.

2. There being no alteration or change in terms and conditions of employment there is no threat to the rights of the appellants in any conceivable way. The appeal is devoid of any merit, I will therefore dismiss all these appeals numbering 41 summarily. H.B.T./2181/Lb.S Appeals dismissed.
