JUDGMENT Per Deepak Gupta, J.(Oral) -Actual date notice has been sent to the respondent, who has not put in appearance. Hence the matter has been heard in his absence. 2.

Admittedly, the applicant had completed 240 days of service prior to 31.12.1993. Therefore, in terms of the JUDGMENT rendered by this Court in Gauri Dutt and ors. Vs. State of H.P. 366 LHLJ 2008(1) the petitioner is entitled to the relief granted to him by the learned Tribunal. The petitioner must be regularized/granted work charge status in terms of the JUDGMENT passed by this court in Gauri Dutt and others case (supra). There is no merit in the writ petition which is accordingly dismissed. No order as to costs.
