State of Haryana & others', dated 25.01.2018 (Annexure P-18), to contend that even the non-eligible candidates, who did not possess 'NET' qualification, were ordered to be considered for filling-up the vacancies in case vacancies are still available. This Court has proceeded to give directions for consideration of their cases in those circumstances in the light of the instructions, which were received by the counsel for the State.

3. Counsel for the State has brought to the notice of the Court that policy guidelines have been framed by the Government of Haryana regarding engaging Eligible Extension Lecturers in Government colleges purely on work requirement basis, dated 04.03.2020 (Annexure R-3). He contends that the claims of the petitioners will be considered as per the said policy guidelines and in case, they are found eligible as per the said guidelines and there is work available, speaking order would be passed in their cases and they will be continued/appointed.
