[emphasis added] We have examined the terms and conditions of the appointment letter of the appellant, as quoted herein above. Condition no.1 clearly indicates that the appointment of the appellant was purely temporary which can be terminated without assigning any reason by giving one month's notice in writing or on payment of one month's salary and allowances in lieu thereof. It was stipulated in the letter of appointment that the appellant would be entitled to revised pay scale which was awaited from the State Government for the employees of the Institution. However, the appointment letter indicated that he would also receive allowances admissible under the rules of the Institution from time to time. Clause 5 of the appointment letter also indicated that the date of next increment would be one year after the date of joining the post. From a close scrutiny of the letter of appointment, it is evident that the appointment of the appellant in the above post was temporary which could be terminated by either of the parties without assigning any reason by giving one month's notice or payment of one month's pay and allowances in lieu thereof.
