Judgment & Decree

SAJJAD ALI SHAH, J.‑‑‑Petitioner claims that he joined service as Patwari in the year 1961 and was selected as Qanungo in 1971 and his appointment as such was regularised in 1976. In 1978 he was appointed as Naib‑Tehsildar on ad hoc basis but his appointment is not regularised while in the meantime his juniors have been promoted. Petitioner claims that he is entitled to regularisation of service as he has been holding ad hoc appointment before 20th September, 1986 as is envisaged under section 3 of N.‑W.F.P. Ad hoc Civil Servants (Regularisation of Services) Act, 1987.

2. On the other hand ServiceTribunal has held as is claimed by official respondents that petitioner is not an ad hoc appointee against the post of Naib -Tehsildar but was promoted on temporary basis as stop‑gap arrangement and his promotion could not be regularised as he was not considered fit on account of patchy record. Petitioner also claims that his case is analogous to that of Mr. Muhammad Nihar, ad hoc Naib‑Tehsildar, whose service was ordered to be regularised under section 3 of the abovementioned Act by the Service Tribunal and against that order petition for leave to appeal was filed in this Court (C.P. No. 209‑P of 1991) titled as Commissioner, Peshawar Division and others v. Muhammad Nihar Naib‑Tehsildar, which has been dismissed vide order dated 18‑5‑1992.

3. Leave is granted to consider whether case of the petitioner is covered by section 3 of the Act mentioned above. AA./N‑346/S Leave granted.
