Paramjeet Kaur & Anr vs State Of Haryana & Ors on 20 July, 2022
99. Apparently, the learned Single Judge in the case of Sonu
and others (supra) relied upon the interim orders of the Division Bench
dated 20.04.2017 and 08.05.2017, which were clarified by the Division
Bench as noticed above and directed that the joint merit list needs to be
adhered to and the State was bound to implement it in letter and spirit.
The said judgment is subject matter of appeal in the 5th bunch of cases.
The decision, thus, on merits when the matter was still pending
adjudication cannot be held to be justified as it is settled principle that the
interim orders always merge in the final order and interim directions are
only to make temporary arrangements to preserve the status-quo till the
final hearing.
