Though no appointment letter is stated to have been issued, petitioner joined her duties on 31.08.2015. However, she was relieved from service due to less workload on 09.04.2016. It is submitted that petitioner also worked as part time Lecturer in a Government aided college from 09.08.2017 to 21.04.2018 and from 24.01.2019 to 06.04.2019.

Petitioners' writ petition was admittedly disposed of on 08.08.2016 as mentioned above. Petitioner was thereafter not adjusted as an Extension Lecturer by the respondent - authorities. It is to be noticed that the present writ petition has now been filed in December, 2021 seeking re-adjustment as an Extension Lecturer with a representation stated to have been submitted by the petitioner on 08.09.2021. 6. Learned counsel for the petitioner has argued that in view of order dated 08.08.2016, petitioner is a Court protected candidate and is entitled to be treated as a Displaced Extension Lecturer even in terms of policy dated 04.03.2020. It is further submitted that in view of judicial order in petitioner's favour, it is not open to the respondent - authorities to ignore the petitioner's case.

Petitioner admittedly worked as Extension Lecturer from 31.08.2015 to 09.04.2016. Doubtlessly, CWP-15908-2016 was disposed of on 08.08.2016 being covered with decision dated 29.07.2016 in CWP-16975-2014 titled 'Mrs. Rita Tandon versus State of Haryana and others'.

In this regard, decisions be taken without any delay and preferably within 7 days of the petitioners bringing their grievances to the notice of the Collegeauthorities." 10. Petitioner was admittedly not adjusted thereafter. In the meantime, it is a matter of record that policy/guidelines dated 04.03.2020 (Annexure P7) was/were promulgated which now governs appointment to the post of Extension Lecturer. It is specifically provided therein that only such person shall be engaged as Extension Lecturer, who fulfils the qualifications/eligibility as per the Haryana Education (College Cadre) Group B Service Rules applicable to Assistant Professor of Government colleges. Clause A of the Policy which provides for engagement of eligible Extension Lecturer reads as under:- 'A. ENGAGEMENT OF ELIGIBLE EXTENSION LECTURERS: 1.

The draft advertisement shall include details about qualification as per the norms, pay scales etc. decided by the Government for engagement of Eligible Extension Lecturers and shall be got approved from Director General Higher Education, Haryana. 5. A committee of three senior most Associate/Assistant Professors under the Chairmanship of Principal of the concerned college shall be constituted to engage eligible Extension Lecturers purely on merit and on the basis of selection criteria prescribed by the State Government for the selection of Assistant Professors in Govt.

Provision has been made for adjustment of displaced Extension Lecturer as well, which is as under:- ' E. ADJUSTMENT OF DISPLACED ELIGIBLE EXTENSION LECTURERS: 20. In case of a relieved eligible Extension Lecturer(s) having experience certificate and good conduct certificate, they will be adjusted if and only if they approach for adjustment in some other Government College by way of representation as per terms given below, to the Director General Higher Educational Committee constituted at Headquarter. 21. Only the persons, who worked as eligible Extension Lecturer for at least one semester but were relieved due to less workload/joining of regular Assistant/Associate Professors by way of transfer/deputation or fresh appointment on or after 01.07.2014 are to be adjusted and are to be considered as 'Displaced Extension Lecturer'. 22. The list of colleges will be displayed on web portal where the requirement of teaching faculty is available in the subject. 23. All displaced eligible Extension Lecturers will upload their biodata on web portal with experience details duly verified by the Principals of previous colleges where they worked and were displaced on or after July 2014. An email, alongwith copy of their experience certificate as well as their educational qualifications certificates, is required to be uploaded within 72 hours after displacement by way of joining of an Assistant Professor by way of fresh appointment or transfer or deputation of regular faculty. 24.

The incumbent having longest experience will be adjusted first. In case of his/her refusal or non-joining within two/three days, the next person can be given chance to be got adjusted." 12. Division Bench of this Court in Suman Devi Vs. State of Haryana and others, 2020 (4) S.C.T 523, has specifically and categorically held that ineligible Extension Lecturers have no right to continue and that interim directions issued by the Court, cannot vest the said petitioners with any right. Division Bench of this Court in Suman Devi's case had formulated the following issues for consideration:- 'i) Whether the impugned policy dated 04.03.2020 is liable to be quashed as it declares those candidates ineligible, who do not possess the NET being arbitrary especially in view of the fact that these in-eligible candidates were appointed through validly constituted selection committee? ii) Whether the petitioners claim discrimination with the regularly appointed employees as these regularly appointed employees are continuing despite the fact that they are not qualified, whereas petitioners have been barred from continuing on their jobs? iii) Whether the policy in question is in direct contravention to the various judgments passed by this Court i.e CWP No. 16975 of 2014 titled as "Rita Tandon Vs State of Haryana and others" decided on 27.07.2016 as well as Judgment dated 25.01.2018 passed in bunch of writ petition, lead case being CWP No. 20767 of 2017 titled as "Anita Vs State of Haryana and others".? 13. Division Bench of this Court in Suman Devi's case (Supra) has specifically observed as under:- 'Thus, it is seen that the State has been consistently trying to weed out the candidates who are not eligible by filling up these posts with eligible candidates. 13. Division Bench of this Court in Suman Devi's case (Supra) has specifically observed as under:- 'Thus, it is seen that the State has been consistently trying to weed out the candidates who are not eligible by filling up these posts with eligible candidates. The directions that have been issued from time to time, does not afford any protection to the ineligible candidates in perpetuity. As observed earlier, since the State does not have shortage of eligible lecturers now, it was well within its power to frame and implement the impugned policy dated 04.03.2020 (P-12) and ignore the ineligible Extension Lecturers. Hence issue no 3 is also answered in favour of the State, as it cannot be said the impugned policy is in conflict with the directions issued by this Court from time to time." 14. It was held by the Division Bench of this Court in Suman Devi's case (supra) that Policy dated 04.03.2020 did not suffer from any arbitrariness and cannot be quashed as it declares those candidates ineligible, who do not possess NET, though appointed through validly constituted selection committee. Issue no.2 was decided against the petitioner and issue no.3 answered in favour of the State. 15. Argument raised by learned counsel for the petitioner that petitioner by virtue of Court order becomes a protected candidate and is not required to fulfil the applicable eligibility conditions is, thus, an unsustainable argument in the given factual matrix, hence rejected. Learned counsel then argued that petitioner has subsequently secured her Ph.D. degree in March, 2022, therefore, not having cleared NET or having secured Ph.D. degree earlier in any case, cannot be held against her now. However, this argument is also rejected being devoid of any merit. In the event of petitioner securing the requisite eligibility qualification subsequently, cannot in any manner entitle her to be treated as a Displaced Extension Lecturer in the face of specific provisions of the policy which is not the subject matter of challenge. It is to be reiterated that there is no explanation on record as to why petitioner has not raised any objection to her not being adjusted even after disposal of CWP-15908-2016 in August, 2016. Argument that petitioner is a Court protected candidate, hence, should be readjusted at this stage is indeed fallacious and devoid of any merit in the given factual matrix. 16. Argument that petitioner is a Court protected candidate, hence, should be readjusted at this stage is indeed fallacious and devoid of any merit in the given factual matrix. 16. Learned counsel for the petitioner is unable to point out any ground, whatsoever, for interference in this writ petition for issuance of a direction to the respondents for waiver of a specific condition as contained in policy dated 04.03.2020 and to consider the petitioner, who was admittedly relieved on 09.04.2016, to be an eligible Displaced Extension Lecturer. Furthermore, the argument that respondents have retained even those candidates who do not fulfil eligibility criterion inasmuch as they are not NET qualified or have not done Ph.D., is fallacious as learned counsel is firstly unable to point out any particular employee who is working other than under specific court orders. No similarly situated candidates engaged by the respondents have been pointed out. Furthermore, even if it be so, it is a settled position that two wrongs cannot make a right. Petitioner can possibly reap no benefit therefrom. 17. Learned counsel for the petitioner is unable to point out any ground whatsoever, which calls for interference by this Court. 18. No other argument has been raised. 19. Writ petition is, accordingly, dismissed with no order as to costs. 20. Needless to say, this order shall not be an impediment to the petitioner applying for engagement as an Extension Lecturer in terms of the policy dated 04.03.2020, if she be so covered thereunder.
