-2- others vs. State of Haryana and others” on 23.04.2026. The operative part of the order runs as under:-
“9. In that view of the matter, all the appeals are
disposed of with a direction upon the State of Haryana/its Bodies/Corporation/Nigam to accord fresh
consideration to the claim of employees involved in this batch of cases by passing a speaking order in respect of their claim for regularization within a period of six months. The judgment of the learned Single Judge under appeal stands modified in the light of the principles laid down by the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of Madan Singh (supra). Till an appropriate
order in respect of claim of each of the employees is passed, status quo as exists today would be maintained. It goes without saying that the claim of regularization based on policy of 2011 will also be accorded
consideration keeping in view the principles laid down by the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of Madan Singh (supra) and the order impugned in the present batch of appeals/writ petitions would not come in the way of fresh consideration of the claim of employees for regularization.
10. In order to facilitate a fresh consideration of claim of the individual employee, we direct each employee to submit a comprehensive representation to the department along with a copy of this order within a period of two weeks from the date of receipt of certified copy of this order.”
4.
In the light of this, present contempt petition does not lie and no further action is required. The contempt petition is accordingly disposed of.
5.
Petitioner will avail remedy as directed to him in LPA No.2017 of 2026, decided on 22.07.2026.
6. Pending miscellaneous applications, if any, stand disposed of accordingly.
