JUDGMENT Kurian Joseph, C.J. The petitioner claims the benefit of contract service for the purpose of vacation salary, regularization, pay fixation and seniority. As far as the vacation salary is concerned, the matter is now covered in favour of the petitioner by the decision of this Court in Baldev Singh versus State of H.P. & Others, Latest HLJ 2009 (HP) 293. Therefore, this writ petition is disposed of directing the second respondent to release the vacation salary to the petitioner in case the same has not been granted to him so far. As far as the counting of the period rendered on contract for other benefits is concerned, it is for the petitioner to approach the Government. 2. The writ petition is disposed of, so also the pending application (s), if any.
