2026:UHC:4348 1 HIGH COURT OF UTTARAKHAND AT NAINITAL Writ Petition Service Single No. 1424 of 2026 01 June, 2026 Rajendra Singh Dev --Petitioner Versus State Of Uttarakhand and Others --Respondents ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Presence:- Mr. Manish Lohani, learned counsel for petitioner. Mr. Manessh Bisht, learned Brief Holder for the State of Uttarakhand. Mr. Rajendra Arya, learned counsel holding brief of Mr. Neeraj Garg, learned counsel for respondent No.4. Hon’ble Pankaj Purohit, J. (Oral) Petitioner has challenged the order dated Nil passed by respondent No.3 (annexed as Annexure No.3), whereby, the service of petitioner was brought to an end. 2. Learned counsel for petitioner submits that petitioner was appointed as Junior Assistant in the Labour Court, Kashiput on 06.06.2024 initially for a period of 11 months which was thereafter extended for further 11 months and the period was expired on 05.04.2026, but, thereafter, the period of his appointment was not extended. 3. From perusal of the order impugned, it transpires that initial appointment of the petitioner has been done by the then Presiding Officer, Labour Court, Kashipur, without taking prior permission from the State Government in view of the Government Order No.379/XXX(2)/2018/30(12)/ 2018 dated 29.10.2021. Consequently, instead of extending 2026:UHC:4348 2 further period of petitioner’s engagement, it was brought to an end. 4. This Court having gone through the order impugned found no illegality, and therefore, no interference is required. 5. Accordingly, the present writ petition is dismissed in-limine. 6. Pending application also stands disposed of. (Pankaj Purohit, J.) 01.06.2026 PN
