The petitioner has been working as daily wager on the post of class IV since 1997 in the respondent-Nagar Panchayat. The petitioner claims that he is entitled for regularization of his service with effect from 31.12.2001. The only prayer made by Shri R.S.

Learned Standing Counsel for the respondents No.1 to 3- State and Shri Shyam Mani Shukla, learned counsel for the respondents No.4 and 5 submit that the matter requires factual determination and other considerations as per applicable laws and relevant rules as well as Government Orders by the competent authority in the first instance.
