3. It has been pointed out by learned counsel, appearing for the appellants as well as learned counsel appearing for the respondents that in an identical matter, this Bench had dismissed WA No. 191/2025 (Madhav Prasad Sarathe and Another vs. State of Chhattisgarh & Others) vide order dated 20.03.2025, observing as follows :
“10. From perusal of the impugned order, it would also reveal that the learned Single Judge after adverting the entire facts of the case as well as the law laid down by the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the matter of “Registrar General of India and Another v. V. Thippa Setty and Others” 1998 (8) SCC 690, “Union of India and Others v. Sheela Rani” 2007(15) SCC 230, “M. Janardhan and Others v. State of A.P. and Others” 1994 Supp.(3) SCC 298, “Masood Akhtar Khan and Others v. State of Madhya Pradesh and Others” 1990(4) SCC 24 and also “Secretary, State of Karnataka v. Uma Devi and Others” 2006(4) SCC 1, passed the order dismissing the writ petition, holding that as per the circular dated 05.03.2008, the petitioners are not entitled for any monetary benefits prior to the date of their regularization. This Court is not found force in the
submissions made by learned counsel for the writ appellants in view of the facts and circumstances of the case as well as the law laid down by the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the aforesaid judgments.
11. Upon perusing the impugned order, we notice that the same has been rendered by the learned Single Judge with cogent and justifiable reasons. In an intra- court appeal, no interference is usually warranted
4 unless palpable infirmities are noticed. Learned Single Judge while dismissing the writ petition by the impugned order has adverted to all the facts of the case. We do not find any fault in the impugned order.
12. In view of the above, the writ appeal being devoid of merits and is hereby dismissed.” They further submit that since the facts and issue involved in the present case is identical to that of WA No. 191/2025, this appeal may also be dismissed in the same terms.
4. Having considered the rival submissions made by learned counsel for the parties and having gone through the materials on record, it is evident that the facts and issue involved in this appeal is identical to WA No. 191/2025, this Court deems it appropriate not to take a view other than what has been taken in WA No. 191/2025.
5. Accordingly, the present appeal is dismissed in terms of the order dated 20.03.2025 passed in WA No. 191/2025. Sd/- Sd/- (Ravindra Kumar Agrawal) (Ramesh Sinha) Judge Chief Justice Manpreet
