Learned counsel for the respondent No.6 submits that appeals have been filed by the respondents being LPA No.1648-2025 and 1650- 2025 against the judgment passed in Akashdeep’s case (supra) wherein, notice of motion as well as notice regarding stay has already been issued but concedes the fact that the judgment passed in Akashdeep’s case (supra) has not been stayed. 6. I have heard learned counsel for the parties and have gone through the record with their able assistance. 7. Once, the issue raised in the present petition has already been decided by this Court while passing order in Akashdeep’s case (supra) merely that the respondents have filed the appeals against the said order passed in Akashdeep’s case (supra), does not mean that the claim of the petitioner-college, which is akin to one which was raised in Akashdeep’s case (supra) , should not be disposed of in the same terms so as to avoid discrimination especially, when the operation of the judgment passed in Akashdeep’s case (supra), has not been stayed. It may be noticed that the period of 08 weeks as granted by this Court in case of Akashdeep’s case (supra) will start from the date of receipt of copy of this order. 8. Keeping in view the above, present petition is disposed of in terms of the order passed by this Court in Akashdeep’s case (supra).
