¶1188

Dated this the 22nd day of August 2019 JUDGMENT

¶1189

Vinod Chandran, J.

¶1190

The appeals are from a common judgment dismissing a batch of writ petitions. One of which - W.P(C) No.17639 of 2017 - was considered separately and dismissed, the appeal from which [W.A.No.2106 of 2018] we have de-linked. Two other appeals, W.A.Nos.2318/2018 and 2322/2018, also project a slightly different issue, which was not considered by the learned Single Judge, both of which too, we have de-linked. The writ petitioners in this batch had rival claims; one set claiming appointment as Assistants in the University of Calicut [hereinafter referred to as “the

¶1191

University”] as per the rank list published by the University on 30.01.2016. The other set filed by rank holders in a list published by the Kerala Public Service Commission [for brevity “PSC”] for the post of Assistants

¶1192

- 95 -

¶1193

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1194

to all the Universities in Kerala. The PSC proceeded inter alia on a request made by the University as per the Kerala Public Service Commission (Additional Functions as Respects the Services under the Universities) Act, 2015 [hereinafter referred to as “Act 18/2015”].

¶1195

2. The persons in the list published by the University claimed that till that list is exhausted, there could be no appointment made from the list published by the PSC, for reason only of the process of recruitment directly by the University having arisen long before Act 18/2015. The PSC rank holders asserted their right to be appointed on the ground that after Act 18/2015 came into effect from 29.09.2015, there could be no recruitment directly made by the University. Alternately it was also contended that if at all the earlier recruitment could be proceeded with, that could only lead to appointment in vacancies which arose prior to 29.09.2015, which contention found favour with the learned Single Judge.

¶1196

3. The impugned judgment followed a Division Bench of this Court in W.A.No.426 of 2015. It was found that the University, after Act 18/2015 came into effect, could not have made any appointments to vacancies which arose after that date. The vacancies in which appointments were made

¶1197

- 96 -

¶1198

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1199

after 29.09.2015, were directed to be cancelled. The appointments made on non-joining duty [NJD] vacancies which arose prior to 29.09.2015, even if actually made after the said date, was directed to be regularized. The University

¶1200

was further directed to report the vacancies which arose after 29.09.2015 within two weeks and the PSC was directed

¶1201

to advice the candidates from the list prepared by them to the vacancies reported by the University.

¶1202

4. On facts, it has to be noticed that the University published a notification calling for applications to the post of Assistants on 04.06.2010. While the procedure was going on, Act 18/2015 was promulgated with effect from 29.09.2015. A rank list, as per the earlier notification of the University, was published on

¶1203

30.01.2016. The Syndicate of the University, by its decision dated 23.04.2016, prescribed the period of

¶1204

validity of the rank list to be one year from the date of publication. On 31.05.2016, there was a further extension granted to the list and the same was kept valid for two years from the date of publication. The list expired on 30.01.2018. In the meanwhile, the PSC published a list, which was brought into force with effect from 10.08.2016,

¶1205

the validity period of which has expired on 10.08.2019. We

¶1206

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1207

- 97 -

¶1208

had, by interim order dated 02.08.2019, directed the University to report the vacancies; but, however, restrained the PSC from issuing advices till the Writ Appeals are disposed of.

¶1209

5. Before we proceed further, we should briefly look at the judgment of this Court in W.A.No.426 of 2016 and connected cases. The issue dealt with was identical and also with respect to the very same University. There, the appointments were to the post of Integrated Last Grade Servants; Peons/Watchmen. The notification inviting applications were issued on 20.06.2005 and after a series of litigation, eventually a list was published on 27.02.2016; by which time Act 18/2015 was brought into force. The Division Bench considered a number of decisions of the Supreme Court and this Court, which we would briefly refer to, to emphasize the disparity on facts in the various situations wherein the Courts spoke consistently on the principle.

¶1210

6. I.J.Divakar v . Government of Andhra Pradesh

¶1211

[ (1982) 3 SCC 341 ] was a case in which the State PSC

¶1212

invited applications to the post of Junior Engineer. After conclusion of the viva voce test, while the process of finalizing the select list was in progress, the State,

¶1213

- 98 -

¶1214

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1215

invoking the power under Article 320(3) of the Constitution, excluded from the purview of the Commission all appointments by direct recruitment to the categories at all levels in the State and Subordinate Services. The reason for such exclusion was also to regularize certain Junior Engineers continued for long, temporarily. The challenge made by the persons who were interviewed by the PSC was negatived, finding that inviting applications and a response made to the applications by itself would not create a right to the post, in the candidate.

¶1216

7. Sahadeva Valigan v . State of Kerala [ 1988 (1) KLT 202 ] again was a case filed by candidates who submitted

¶1217

applications to the PSC for appointment to the post of Munsiff. Though a test was conducted, in which writ petitioners were participants, no further proceedings were taken. At that stage, an amendment excluded the appointments of Munsiffs and Magistrates from the purview of the PSC. This Court held that the submission of applications or the participation in a test do not create any legal right in the applicants for the post to which the applications were submitted.

¶1218

8. Simon Lukose v. D.S.P. Kottayam [ 1990 (2) KLT

¶1219

371 ] challenged the policy decision of the Government to

¶1220

- 99 -

¶1221

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1222

stop direct recruitment to Armed Reserve and fill up the vacancies by transferring personnel from Armed Battalion on completion of 7 years. The petitioners asserted a right to be considered for appointment to the vacancies in the Armed Reserve, which was negatived by the Court affirming, yet again, the power of the Government to exclude from the purview of the PSC, recruitment to any post.

¶1223

9. Velayudhan v . Secretary to Government [ 1985 KLT

¶1224

793 ] was a case in which direct recruitment was notified by the PSC to the post of Foreman when the Special Rules in force did not provide for any promotion from the lower category. While the selection was in progress, the Government amended the Special Rules, upon which Velayudhan claimed promotion to the post of Foreman. A candidate advised by the PSC was directly appointed. On a challenge, this Court held that Velayudhan was not qualified to hold the post at the time when the vacancy arose and the amendment to the Rules brought out subsequently would not entitle a claim with retrospective effect from the date of occurrence of vacancy.

¶1225

10. Mahendran v . State of Karnataka [AIR 1990 SC 404] was a case in which the PSC called for applications for selection of candidates to the post of Motor Vehicle

¶1226

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1227

- 100 -

¶1228

Inspectors [MVIs], the eligibility for which included a Diploma in Mechanical Engineering. A selection list was also prepared after test and interview; candidates were advised and the Government took steps to impart them training. While so, the State Government amended the recruitment rules, omitting the qualification of Diploma in Mechanical Engineering from the essential qualification required for selection to the post of MVI's. The Hon'ble Supreme Court found that the Rules were not retrospective in effect and hence, could not affect the recruitment already carried out by the PSC.

¶1229

- 11. Vazhithala Service Co operative Bank v . The - Registrar of Co operative Societies [ 2003 (2) KLT 653 ] was a case in which the resolution of the Board of Directors to

¶1230

make appointment to the post of Secretary by direct recruitment was sanctioned by the Registrar. Applications were invited and written test was conducted by the Institute of Management in Government. However, before the actual conduct of the written test, Section 80-B was inserted by Act 1/2000 and suitable amendments were made in the Rules making it mandatory to make appointments through the Co-operative Service Examination Board constituted

¶1231

under Section 80-B. Even the Regulations and Rules of

¶1232

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1233

- 101 -

¶1234

Procedure were approved by the Government before the written test was conducted. In such circumstances, it was

¶1235

held that though the sanction of the Registrar to make direct appointment of a Secretary could not be assailed, the examination had to be necessarily conducted by the Board constituted under Section 80-B.

¶1236

12. After detailed consideration of the aforesaid cases, the Division Bench relied on A.A.Calton v . Director of Education [ (1983) 3 SCC 33 ], which was followed in Mahendran . The recruitment in A.A.Calton , which was the bone of contention, was to the post of Principal, which was made by the Director of Education. The challenge was on the ground that it is against a statutory provision which was brought in by an amendment wherein the power of Director to

¶1237

make appointment was taken away in relation to minority institutions; which status the subject college enjoyed. It was held by the Supreme Court:

¶1238

“5. ... It is true that the legislature may pass

¶1239

laws with retrospective effect subject to the recognised constitutional limitations. But it is equally well settled that no retrospective effect should be given to any statutory provision so as to impair or take away an existing right, unless the statute either expressly or by necessary implication directs that it should have such retrospective effect. In the instant case admittedly the proceedings for the

¶1242

selection had commenced in the year 1973 and after the Deputy Director had disapproved the recommendations made by the Selection Committee twice the Director acquired the jurisdiction to make an appointment from amongst the qualified candidates who had applied for the vacancy in question. At the instance of the appellant himself in the earlier writ petition filed by him the High Court had directed the Director to exercise that power. Although the Director in the present case exercised that power subsequent to August 18, 1975 on which date the amendment came into force, it cannot be said that the selection made by him was illegal since the amending law had no retrospective effect. It did not have any effect on the proceedings which had commenced prior to August 18, 1975. Such proceedings had to be continued in accordance with the law as it stood at the commencement of the said proceedings. We do not, therefore, find any substance in the contention of the learned counsel for the appellant that the law as amended by the U.P. Act 26 of 1975 should have been followed in the present case".

¶1243

The Division Bench, hence, found the selection, which had commenced in the year 2005 and the list published in the year 2016, to be unaffected by an enactment (Act 18/2015) brought into force with effect from 29.09.2015.

¶1244

13. We are bound by the above precedent; but, however, there are certain other aspects which arise in the case with respect to the list of the University and the appointments made therefrom; which have to be dealt with by

¶1245

- 103 -

¶1246

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1247

us. Further, there are also arguments addressed on the exact application of Act 18/2015, which was never raised in the cited decision. True, here also the notification was dated 04.06.2010 and as is wont to happen, the selection went through a series of litigation and eventually the rank list was published on 30.01.2016. Act 18/2015 came into force on 29.09.2015. The principle is that the State has the ultimate authority to decide as to who should carry out the recruitment to public office, whether the institution itself or the PSC. The commencement of the recruitment, the manner in which it is carried out, the point of time at which the statutory prescriptions are made and the stage at which the recruitment is, are all relevant factors in an adjudication as to conflicting procedures having been resorted to.

¶1248

14. Sr.P.Ravindran, learned Senior Counsel took

¶1249

us through the provisions of the Calicut University Act, 1975, the Statutes and Ordinances, to specifically point out that there is a statutory scheme for appointment, with plurality of entities and the Senate being given the exclusive power to fix the terms and conditions of service of employees of the University with previous concurrence of the Government. The powers of the Syndicate, as per the Act

¶1250

- 104 -

¶1251

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1252

of 1975, also speaks of appointment of teachers and other employees of the University and prescribes their duties. There is also provided in Chapter 4 of Part I of the Calicut University First Statutes, 1977, by Statute 8, a procedure for recruitment to be carried out on the basis of the recommendation made by a Selection Board consisting of specific functionaries of the University as mentioned therein. Without an amendment to the Act and Statutes, there could be no recruitment made by the PSC under Act 18/2015. Various other enactments empowering the KPSC with additional functions have been pointed out to emphasize a lacuna in Act 18/2015. Though sub-section (1) of Section 3 is a non-obstante clause sub-section(2) is not. It is also argued that there are no Rules made under Section 4 of Act 18/2015. Reference was also made to the distinct language employed in Articles 320 and 321. Sri.Elvin Peter adopts and supports the arguments so addressed.

¶1253

15. Learned Counsel appearing for the other

¶1254

appellants while adopting the arguments addressed, take a further stand to sustain their appointments. They are persons appointed in 2016 while the challenge was raised first time in 2018. Their appointments were before list of

¶1255

the PSC was brought out. They emphasize the aspect of no

¶1256

- 105 -

¶1257

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1258

prescription under Section 4 of Act 18/2015 having been made, in accordance with the requirement of the provision.

¶1259

The University was never consulted and till the prescription is made to enable consultation by the University with the PSC for recruitment the statute cannot have any application, urge the learned Counsel.

¶1260

16. We have to first observe that there is no challenge to Act 18/2015 or the list published by the PSC or even the Regulations framed by the Government, which is produced as Exhibit P6 dated 26.02.2016 in W.P(C) No.11359 of 2018.

¶1261

17. We, at the outset also notice Section 3(1),(2) and (3) of Act 18/2015, which is extracted here under:

¶1262

“3. Functions of the Public Service

¶1263

Commission.(1) Notwithstanding anything contained in the University Acts specified in clause (a) of section 2 and the statutes, ordinances, regulations and rules made thereunder,

¶1264

it shall be the duty of the Public Service commission to prepare select list, for appointment by direct recruitment, of employees to the non-teaching post of a University.

¶1265

(2) A University shall consult the Public Service Commission,-

¶1266

(a) On all matters relating to the method of recruitment of the non-teaching staff of the University; and

¶1267

- 106 -

¶1268

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1269

(b) on the principles to be followed in making appointments by direct recruitment to the non-teaching posts in the University and the suitability of candidates for such appointments,

¶1270

(3) Where the Public Service Commission is consulted on a matter under sub-section (2), the Commission shall advice the University on that matter”.

¶1271

Hence, the Act, by the non-obstante clause, has pre-eminence insofar as direct recruitment of employees to

¶1272

the non-teaching post of the University de hors the provisions contained in the University Act, Statutes, Ordinances, Regulations and Rules made there under. The University of Calicut is also brought under the definition of “University” under Section 2(a). When sub-section(1), by a non-obstante clause overrides the statutory scheme for recruitment of non-teaching staff, sub-section(2) provides the requirement of or the statutory mandate on, the University to consult the PSC, on all matters relating to the recruitment of non-teaching staff.

¶1273

18. Kerala Veterinary and Animal Sciences University Act 2010, Veterinary & Animal Sciences University First Statutes 2014, Kerala University of Fisheries and Ocean Studies Act 2010, Kerala University

¶1275

- 107 -

¶1276

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1277

before us to show that therein a proviso was added to the above-mentioned statutes to take away the power of the University to make recruitment to the non-teaching staff. We are of the opinion that de hors such a proviso brought into the University Act, Statutes and Ordinances, Act 18/2015 has taken away the power of the University by Section 3 and vested the PSC with such additional functions of recruitment with respect to the services under the Universities specified in Act 18/2015. The amendments above referred were only as an abundant caution, which practice by itself does not create a legal mandate for such amendments to be made in the Acts, Ordinances and Statutes for the purpose of making effective, the additional functions vested in the KPSC. Act 18 of 2015 is brought out sourcing the power to Article 321 of the Constitution and the non-obstante clause therein provided overriding effect over the Act, Statutes and Ordinances.

¶1278

19. We have also been taken through the Kerala Public Service Commission (Additional Functions as Respects Certain Corporations and Companies) Act, 1970 and Kerala Public Service Commission (Additional Functions as Respects the Kerala Road Transport Corporation) Act, 1970 [respectively Act 19 of 1970 and Act 3 of 1970]. It is

¶1279

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1280

- 108 -

¶1281

stated that there is an enabling provision for the Corporations to consult the PSC, which is absent in Act 18/2015. We cannot countenance the said contention looking at Section 3, of Act 18/15, as a whole, as we already found.

¶1282

20. We do not think the distinction as evident

¶1283

from Articles 320 and 321 also do not persuade us to hold otherwise. Article 320 is a constitutional mandate on the State and Union to consult the Union or State PSCs on all matters pertaining to appointments to their services; with a proviso permitting such consultation to be excluded in general or particular class of cases, by regulations framed. Article 321, however, enables the Parliament or Legislature to extend such consultation with the PSC in matters pertaining to appointment to any public office by providing for exercise of additional functions by the PSC.

¶1284

Such enabling provision need not be by amendments to the statutes constituting such public institutions. A separate enactment on the exercise of additional functions by PSC can by a non-obstante clause divest the institution of its power to make recruitment, as provided in the statute creating it, and provide for consultation with the PSC. This is precisely the legislative exercise carried out in

¶1285

- 109 -

¶1286

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1287

Act 15/2018.

¶1288

21. As we noticed earlier, all the learned Counsel arguing for the persons included in the rank list of the University had vigorously contended that the prescription made by the Government dated 26.02.2016 is not in accordance with Section 4 of Act 18/15, but none have challenged it nor is the list of the PSC challenged. Arguments were advanced as to no consultation having been carried out with the University and Section 4 of Act 18/2015 having not been complied with in its true letter and spirit. We also notice that on facts the Division Bench in W.A.No.426 of 2016 and connected cases did not look at the exact appointments made from the list published by the University or the vacancies in which the new recruits were accommodated.

¶1289

22. Before proceeding further, we have to notice that we agree in principle with the findings of the learned Single Judge insofar as the vacancies arising prior to Act 18/2015 capable of being filled up from the university list itself and after the enactment of Act 18/2015, the PSC being conferred with the exclusive authority to make recruitment; the appointments having to be made by the University itself on the basis of the advices sent by the

¶1290

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1291

- 110 -

¶1292

PSC. But we cannot but observe that, there are certain fundamental aspects; which makes the instant case impossible of adjudication, merely on distinguishing the vacancies as arising, before and after Act 18 of 2015.

¶1293

23. In this context, we have to look at the nature of the challenge made in the various writ petitions. The first writ petition was W.P(C) No.34381 of 2016, which was filed by five persons included in the University list. The prayers in the said writ petition were to issue a writ, directing filling up of vacancies in the post of Assistants during the validity period of the list prepared by the University from that list alone and to direct that the list published by the PSC would not operate in the validity period of the list prepared by the University. There was

¶1294

also a prayer for declaring that the petitioners and similarly placed persons included in the University list are entitled to be considered for appointment to vacancies arising in the post of Assistants during the period of the list prepared by the University. The prayers are more or less similar in W.P(C) No.35993 of 2016. W.P(C) No.27157 of 2017 and 17631 of 2018 challenged additionally a G.O dated 06.04.2017 which directed the University not to make any further appointments from the list dated 30.01.2016, since

¶1295

- 111 -

¶1296

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1297

already the PSC was entrusted with the task of recruitment of non-teaching staff and the University having reported vacancies to which appointment were also made from the list of the PSC. The said order was produced as Ext.P10 & P11 in the respective writ petitions. The latter writ petition also challenged a communication of the PSC (Ext.P8) which directed to appoint candidates as per its list, without impleading any rank holder in that list. Of course some of the rank holders in the PSC list subsequently got themselves impleaded but that does not remove the defect since there were other persons in the PSC list and the petitioner had not sought for impleading anybody in a representative capacity. W.P(C) No.23306 of 2016 sought for appointment of the petitioner therein included in the University list, in the NCA vacancies, of the earlier list dated 14.12.2009; from the present list dated 31.01.2016.

¶1298

24. W.P(C) No.37627 of 2017 was filed by a rank holder in the list prepared by the PSC. So were W.P(C) Nos. 1816 0f 2018 and 11359 of 2018; which were disposed of by the impugned judgment. W.P(C) No.20654 of 2019 is a writ petition filed by 41 persons included in the rank list prepared by the PSC; which is filed on 26.07.2019. We are

¶1299

told that the writ petitioners who earlier sought

¶1300

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1301

- 112 -

¶1302

appointment as per the rank list of the PSC were all granted appointment by this Court; but the petitioners in W.P(C) No.20654 of 2019 seek appointment as of now and has filed the above writ petition for a direction to report the

¶1303

vacancies. In this context we keep in mind the argument raised by learned Counsel T.B.Hood; appearing for some of

¶1304

those appointed from the University list; that though the regulations of the State and the list of the PSC are not challenged, the petitioners who seek reporting of the vacancies ought to establish their right to be granted that relief. If the regulations are not framed in accordance with Act 18/15 definitely they do not get a right to be appointed merely because they have been included in the list. Inclusion in the list, even as per the precedents earlier discussed does not create a right for appointment to the post, is the argument.

¶1305

25. As to what transpired in the writ petitions; when W.P(C) No.34381 of 2016 was filed by those who were included in the rank list of the University, on admission, by order dated 26.10.2016 there was an interim order granted, which restrained the University from making appointments to the post of Assistants other than from Exhibit P2 list (University's). Later, the persons included

¶1306

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1307

- 113 -

¶1308

in the rank list of the PSC appeared and sought for modification of the interim order. On 29.11.2016, there was a direction to the University to appoint persons advised as per Exhibit R5(c) dated 05.09.2016, including respondents 4 to 22, who got themselves impleaded in the writ petition as Assistants in the University to 20 of the 35 vacancies which are stated to have come into existence after 10.08.2016. This date was specified for reason of it being after 29.09.2015, being the date from which Act 18/2015 was enforced. Yet again, by interim order dated 15.11.2017, a learned Single Judge directed the University to make appointment of Assistants in case of requirement from Exhibit P2 list (rank list of the University), provisionally and subject to the result of the writ petitions.

¶1309

26. Those who have challenged the judgment of the learned Single Judge can be differentiated into two groups; those who were granted appointment even before the writ petitions were filed and those provisionally appointed as per the interim order of this Court dated 15.11.2017. The statement filed by the Standing Counsel of the University dated 18.11.2016, is available in the Judges Papers of W.P(C) No.34381 of 2016; which we have called for and

¶1310

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1311

- 114 -

¶1312

examined. Therein, it is stated that the rank list was published on 30.01.2016 and 334 candidates have been offered appointment as Assistants from the said rank list. Going by the binding decision in W.A.No.426 of 2016 and

¶1313

connected cases, we have to prima-facie find that the said appointments pursuant to the rank list of 30.01.2016 which were all made prior to the filing of the writ petitions have to be approved. The provisional appointments made as per the interim order would be subject to the decision in the appeal.

¶1314

27. Before we go to the appointments made provisionally, we have to notice a fact emphasized in W.P. (C) No.11359 of 2018 filed by two persons who were included in the rank list of the PSC. Therein, they challenged the 36 appointments made, which were stated to be made to vacancies arising after 29.09.2015, the date on which Act 18/2015 came into effect. The appellants, in the different appeals are, hence, (i) those 36 persons whose appointment orders were challenged in W.P.(C) No.11359 of 2018 and (ii) the persons included in the University list who had obtained provisional appointments by virtue of the interim order of this Court dated 15.11.2017 in W.P(C) No.34381 of 2016 and W.P(C) No.27157 of 2017.

¶1315

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1316

- 115 -

¶1317

28. We will first deal with the 36 appointments pursuant to the list published by the University on 31.01.2016, who are the party respondents 6 to 41 in W.P. (C) No.11359 of 2018. We refer to the documents produced therein. We have to notice that these persons were appointed in 2016 and the challenge was only in the year 2018. There was a contention raised in defence as to the writ petition being grossly delayed. The writ petitioners

¶1318

have countered the same with the submission that they were aware of the appointments being made to vacancies which arose after Act 18/2015 only when there was an answer given by the Minister in the Assembly regarding the appointments made from the University list. There was absolutely no possibility of their being apprised of the exact date on which the vacancies arose. We are convinced that there cannot be any delay found in the filing of the writ petition. We look at Exhibit P22, wherein to a specific question it has been answered that the 36 vacancies to which appointments were made from the list of the University dated 30.01.2016, which arose after the Act 18/2015 came into effect from 29.09.2015. The said document is dated 05.03.2018 and the writ petition has been filed on 29.03.2018.

¶1319

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1320

- 116 -

¶1321

29. Be that as it may, the proposal for entrusting the PSC with recruitment of non-teaching staff in the University emerged a lot earlier to Act 18/2015. It was even before that a notification was published by the University dated 04.06.2010. Later, when the proposal emerged; there was a decision taken by the executive Government to bring in a suitable enactment under Article 321 of the Constitution, as evidenced from Exhibit P3 (W.P(C) No. 11359/18) dated 04.02.2011. While the University and the Law Department were entrusted with the task of making suitable enactment; by decision No.3 as seen from Exhibit P3, the selection already commenced by the University was directed to be continued. This selection as first notified on 04.06.2010, culminated in the rank list dated 30.01.2016. At that time, there was no list published by the University. The persons who figured in the list were also appointed before the list of PSC came into effect.

¶1322

30. We notice Annexure-II produced in

¶1323

W.A.No.1987/2018, wherein respondents 6 to 41 in W.P(C)

¶1324

No.11359/18 are seen at serial Nos.30 to 65. The

¶1325

appointment orders [date of advice], as seen from Annexure-II, was between 29.04.2016 and 04.06.2016. The

¶1326

candidates so adviced for appointment joined service on or

¶1327

- 117 -

¶1328

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1329

before June, 2016. We have to notice that the PSC rank list had not come into effect at that point. Even if the list had come into operation as per the precedents discussed above, none gets a right to get appointment to a vacancy merely for reason of inclusion in the list. This principle will be equally applicable to the candidates in the university list, after the PSC list came into effect. In the instant case when the appointments were made to the University from the list dated 31.01.2016, the list of the PSC was not even published. The Government as noticed earlier, despite the decision to concede recruitment of non-teaching staff of Universities, to the PSC; permitted the recruitment already notified by the University to be continued. We again notice Exhibit P3 decision (W.P(C) No.11359/18) of the Government to permit the University to proceed with the selection even after a decision was taken to entrust the recruitment of non-teaching staff of the University to the PSC. The list published by the PSC was effective only from 10.08.2016. The persons who were included in the rank list of the PSC much later to the appointment of the 36 cannot be heard to challenge the appointments carried out earlier. The University had proceeded with the selection and had made the appointments

¶1330

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1331

- 118 -

¶1332

in accordance with the decision of the executive Government which permitted them to proceed with the recruitment notified. We cannot but emphasize the crucial fact of the recruitment commenced in 2010 having culminated in a rank list only in the year 2016. After 6 long years, thanks to the proclivity of the aspirants to challenge a recruitment on any pretext or every conceivable ground, sustainable or not, which again is due to the alarming unemployment of educated youth, who are unwilling to take a job which soil their collar. We cannot but affirm the appointments made from the list of the University, as permitted by the Government itself, before the list of the PSC came into effect.

¶1333

31. Our reasoning above to refuse interference to

¶1334

the appointments of the 36 who were made parties in W.P(C) No.11359 of 2018 does not, however, confer any right on the other persons included in the rank list of the University. On 10.08.2016 the list of the PSC came into effect. We noticed herein above that there were interim orders passed by this Court, first staying the appointment as such, then permitting the candidates ranked in the PSC list, specifically 20 of them, to be posted and then permitting provisional appointment of those in the list of the

¶1335

- 119 -

¶1336

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1337

University. Here we have to pertinently observe that not all persons who got appointment had filed writ petitions seeking appointment. Only some of them came to this Court with writ petitions seeking appointment as per the list of the University but not specifically challenging the PSC list. Others, many who are appellants before us, got themselves impleaded and sought for appointment as per the list. Many were fence sitters who got appointment in this fashion and it is of no consequence, since the appointments were provisional even as per the order of this Court. We find that none of these persons could have been appointed, since, by that time, the list of the PSC came into effect. The persons who were provisionally appointed, on orders of this Court, will have to be terminated with immediate effect; but, however, we make it clear that the salary paid to them shall not be demanded back for they have worked in

¶1338

the post to which they were appointed; though provisionally. IF any of these provisional appointees have been transferred to other Universities on inter-University transfers, it goes without saying that the very foundation of their appointment having been shaken and demolished, there is no question of their continuing in the other Universities to which they were transferred. They would be

¶1339

- 120 -

¶1340

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1341

terminated with immediate effect.

¶1342

32. We find the list of the University to have absolutely no effect after the list of the PSC came into force. Now we have to consider whether the PSC list can be relied upon by those rank holders, for seeking appointment from the said list to the vacancies reported before the expiry of the said list. We have already rejected the contention with respect to the Act of 18/2015 not being sufficiently worded to overcome the scheme and procedure as has been prescribed under the University Act, Statutes and Ordinances. What remains to be considered is whether the prescriptions made by the Government under Section 4 of Act 18/2015 are sufficient for carrying out the purposes of the Act. It is no doubt a fact that no rules or regulations

¶1343

have been made as prescribed under the Act and no consultation has been carried out. Exhibit P6 dated 26.02.2016 produced in W.P.(C) No.11359 of 2018, is the prescription brought out by the Government, which as we noticed, is not challenged by anyone. However, a reading of Exhibit P6 would indicate that the Government had taken into consideration the problems faced by the University due to dearth of non-teaching staff for reason of the recruitment having been entrusted to the PSC and no

¶1344

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1345

- 121 -

¶1346

prescriptions having been made. It was under the consideration of the Government as to whether recruitment could be made to the post of Assistants under the Universities from the existing rank list of Assistants in the Government Secretariat. However, the PSC is seen to have advised issuance of an executive order showing the method of appointment. Only in such expediency, Exhibit P6 was issued, wherein method of appointment, scale of pay, qualification and age of Assistants and Computer Assistants Grade II were specified; in accordance with which the selection has been carried out. We see that the specifications made in Exhibit P6 does not at all depart from the prescriptions made in the Statutes. Though there could be found a procedural irregularity insofar as no consultation having been made, considering the fact that the existing requirements were as such adopted by the Government in making such prescription, only to enable expedient recruitment to the non-teaching posts in the University, we cannot fault the list drawn up after a selection procedure under the Act 18/2015 and Exhibit P6, G.O.(P)No.7/2016/H.Edn. dated 16.02.2016. We once again pertinently reiterate the fact that there is no challenge to the list brought out by the PSC or the prescription made

¶1347

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1348

- 122 -

¶1349

by the Government as per Exhibit P6.

¶1350

33. Yet again, we have to notice that the

¶1351

appointments made from the list dated 30.01.2016 drawn up by the University itself, are those made initially from the list, which was permitted by the Government also, which we have approved. The said appointments were also before the rank list of the PSC was brought out. In this context, we have to find that the notification of the University did not prescribe any validity period for the list. The minute the list of the PSC came into force, the list brought out by the University fails to have any significance or relevance. The extension made by the University is not shown to be sourced to any power available to the Syndicate as per the University Act, Statutes and Ordinances. The 41 appointments made by Annexure-II in W.A.No.1987/2018 were made immediately on the publication of list dated 31.01.2016 and the last of the advices as per Annexure-II was sent on 17.06.2016. The first extension of the validity of the list for an year was made on 23.04.2016 and the second extension for two years on 31.05.2016. Though we have found the extension to be without power the appointments made as per Annexure-II in W.A.No.1987/2018, we have already found are not liable to be interfered with.

34. On our findings above, the following directions are issued:

¶1355

(i) The appointments of 334 persons made by the University in pursuance of the University list dated 30.01.2016 are affirmed, including the appointment of the 35 persons who are party respondents 6 to 41 in W.P(C) No.11359 of 2018.

¶1356

(ii) The provisional appointments made by the University on the strength of the interim order dated 15.11.2017 shall stand cancelled and those appointed shall be terminated with immediate effect; but, however, without any demand for refund of the salary already paid to them for the duty they rendered on such provisional appointment.

¶1357

(iii) To the said 45 vacancies created by the termination of the provisional appointees as also those reported pursuant to the order dated 02.08.2019, appointments shall be made from the list brought out by the PSC.

¶1358

(iv) In terms of the directions issued by this Court, from the vacancies reported including those provisionally filled up, the University shall inform the Commission as to the substantive vacancies that arose after the last appointment from the University list, as affirmed by this

¶1360

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1361

Court. The Commission shall advice such number of candidates as notified by the University to the substantive vacancies subject to the consideration of the claim raised by two NCA candidates in W.A.No.2322/2018 and 2318/2018, which shall be separately done.

¶1362

35. W.A.Nos.1987/2018, 1995/2018, 2001/2018, 2002/2018, 2005/2018, 2042/2018, 2053/2018, 2155/2018 and 98/2019 are allowed. W.A.No.2031/2018 is a stranger to the writ petition; but, however, filed the appeal with leave. The appellant therein is Sl.No.70 in Annexure-II in W.A.No.1987/2018. She is entitled to be confirmed in her appointment, since her case is similar to that of respondents 6 to 41 in W.P(C) No.11359/2018. W.A.No.2031/2018 is, hence, allowed. W.A.Nos.1761, 1763 and 1764 of 2019 filed by the appellants in W.A.No.1987/2018, to technically challenge the common judgment in the other cases, are also allowed. W.A.No.1760/2019 declined the claim of the petitioner to be appointed to the NCA vacancy of the earlier list dated 14.12.2009. The petitioner has not filed an appeal from the impugned judgment. The appellants are not affected by the denial of the writ petitioner's claim. Hence, W.A.No.1760/2019 is closed as unnecessary. W.A.No.159/2019 filed by the University is

¶1363

- 125 -

¶1364

WA.No.1987 of 2018 & connected cases

¶1365

disposed off as indicated above. W.A.No.1990 of 2018 is filed from the judgment which disposed of the writ petition filed for appointing NJD vacancies from the list of the University. The University list having been found to have no force after the PSC list, we dismiss the appeal. W.A.Nos.1989/2018, 2253/2018, 198/2019 and 1722/2019 are dismissed. W.P(C) No.20654/2019 is also dismissed since it is a writ petition filed against the appointments carried out by the University before 17.06.2018, of respondents 6 to 46 who are persons shown as serial Nos.30 to 70 in Annexure-II in W.A. No.1987/2018, which appointments are confirmed by this Court by this judgment.

¶1366

Ordered accordingly. Parties are left to suffer

¶1367

their respective costs.
