Orders on Memo of writ petition Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Standing Counsel for the respondent nos. 1 to 3. This writ petition has been filed for the following reliefs: "(i). issue a writ, order or direction in the nature of mandamus directing the opposite parties no.1 to 3 to make payment of monthly salary to the petitioner according to pay-scale as admissible according to rules issued from time to time from the date of appointment dated 01.09.1982 with the arrears of 18% compound interest and also appoint the petitioner on the post of village Panchayat Officer ; (ii). issue a writ, order or direction in the nature of mandamus directing the opposite parties to regularise the services of the petitioner as per provision of the G.O. issued by the State Government cited above as well as the principle laid down by the Hon'ble supreme Court and High Courts in numerous cases." It is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that the petitioner was appointed on 01.09.1982 on the post of Udyog Sahayak at Darshan Nagar Panchayat Industry, District Faizabad on fixed salary of Rs.200/- p.m. by order of Chief Manager, Panchayat Industry, Darshan Nagar, Faizabad. Submission is that he should be paid monthly salary according to pay-scale as admissible from time to time from the date of issuance of the appointment letter. On the other hand, learned Standing Counsel for the respondents has taken specific stand in his counter affidavit that the petitioner was never appointed on substantive vacancy and the post is also not vacant. The Gram Panchayat used to engage the Assistant Udyog Sahayak. The other stand taken in para 10 of the counter affidavit that appointment was not in accordance with the selection procedure, the said post is not a sanctioned post and also and there is no cadre of such post therefore, the petitioner is not entitled for any relief. Learned counsel for the petitioner has denied the averments of the counter affidavit in rejoinder affidavit but he is unable to point out whether the post in question was sanctioned by the State Government. Learned counsel has not been able to show whether appointment was made in accordance with law particularly in view of the fact that the post was not sanctioned by the State Government. After going through the record, I find no merit in the writ petition. The writ petition is consigned to record. However, it is made clear that the petitioner may seek legal remedy, if any, under the law.
