COMMON ORDER: (Per Hon'ble Sri Justice G.Na render)

¶545

Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned counsel appearing for the respondents.

¶546

All the Writ Petitions are taken up for disposal by^{thisCommonOrder} as they lie in a very narrow compass and with the consent of all the counsels, the writ petitions are heard for disposal.

¶547

The petitioners uniformly claim that they have been employed in various posts on Daily Wage Basis/NMR and Contractual Basis. The dates of engagement and the period of engagement^{aredifferentand} the petitioners are seeking claim for regularization on account of the long period of service rendered by them.

¶548

¶549

Having heard the learned counsel on both sides, this^Court is of the considered opinion that marshalling and collation of^{factscouldbeofcritical} importance in order to settle the factual parameters^{oftheclaims,whichin} our considered opinion, the Courts exercising power^{underArticle226ofthe} Constitution of India are ill-equipped to do. This Court has suggested that such an exercise of fact finding be carried out by an authority and suggested that the Commissioner of Endowments would be the appropriate authority to appreciate the facts in the back ground of the Endowments^ActandtheLaw laid down by the Apex court. We deem it so as the petitioners^areclaiming engagement with different Temples in the State, but^admittedly under^the supervision of the Endowments Commissioner.

¶550

In that view of the matter, we are of the considered opinion that it would be in the interest of the parties that the matter be relegated to the 2"^ respondent to adjudicate the claims of the petitioners.^{TheWritPetitions} shall be treated as representations. The 2^^^ respondent^{shallissuenoticeof} hearing to all the concerned petitioners within one (1) week from the date of receipt of a copy of this order and shall thereafter^{fixthedateofhearing} and endeavour to complete the hearing and pass a speaking order and thereby dispose of the claims of the petitioners within^{anouterlimitofsix} (6) months.

¶551

¶552

The Writ Petitions stand disposed of accordingly.

¶553

The 2"^ respondent shall endeavour to dispose of the claims without seeking

¶554

for any further extension of time.

There shall be no order as to costs. As a sequel, pending applications,

if any, shall stand closed.
