However, the said appointment was on the condition that the candidates would not have a right to claim regularization as &#8216;Data Entry Operators &#39;.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The petitioner stated that the respondents were regularized in the post of &#8216;Junior Judicial Assistants (Data Entry) Ex-Cadre&#39; vide the impugned order dated 16-10-2018 and 17-11-2018 and such appointment was in violation of the Recruitment Rules of the post of Junior Judicial Assistants.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The petitioner further contended that such regularization was not in accordance with law and was contrary to the Supreme Court&#39;s decision in <i>Renu<\/i> v. <i>District and Sessions Judge, Tis Hazari,<\/i> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scconline.com\/Members\/NoteView.aspx?enc=SlRYVC0wMDAwMDQ5NTI3JiYmJiY0MCYmJiYmU2VhcmNoJiYmJiZmdWxsc2NyZWVuJiYmJiZ0cnVlJiYmJiZSZW51IHYuIERpc3RyaWN0IGFuZCBTZXNzaW9ucyBKdWRnZSwgVGlzIEhhemFyaSYmJiYmQWxsV29yZHMmJiYmJmdTZWFyY2gmJiYmJmZhbHNl\">(2014) 14 SCC 50.<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The petitioner stated that, during the contractual service, the respondents had submitted various representations for regularization, however the same was rejected by the Selection Committee. The petitioner further stated that the IT Committee of this Court upon consideration of a fresh representation of the Respondents 3 to 52, recommended the regularization of the Data Entry Operators as Junior Judicial Assistants.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The petitioner submitted that the subject matters of recruitment and regularization of employees of the present Court were under the ambit of the Selection Committee and not of the IT Committee. Moreover, the IT Committee did not take into account previous decisions of the Selection Committee, while recommending the regularization of the Data Entry Operators as Junior Judicial Assistants.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court opined that the present writ petition raised serious constitutional and administrative issues and thus, requested Attorney General for India, R.
