Bishandeo Choudhary And Ors. vs State Of Bihar And Ors. [Alongwith ... on 11 November, 1994
23. The claim of the petitioners is that their case is similar to that of Bhagwan Dass v. State of Haryana (supra). That was also a case with respect to similar scheme which was temporary in nature. Similar prayer was made in that case also for a direction to the State for regularisation. The Supreme Court after examining all the relevant materials, held that the scheme in question was purely temporary. The moment illiterate adults of villages become literate pursuant to education imparted, the need for an adult education would diminish progressively and ultimately cease. Therefore, it was held that no claim can be made for absorption in a regular employment, merely on the basis of length of service.
