' ALI HUSSAIN QAZILBASH, J.--This is a petition for leave to appeal against the order of the Punjab Service Tribunal, dated 14-1-1986.
2. The petitioner was appointed on a purely temporary basis against a leave vacancy and as soon as the incumbent reported for duty his services were terminated. His appeal against the order of termination of his services was rejected by the Commissioner of the Division on 14-12-1985 and so was his appeal before the Tribunal.
3. We have heard the learned counsel for the petitioner. Since the petitioner was appointed on a purely temporary basis against a leave vacancy, therefore, the Department had no alternative but to terminate his services when the person against whom he was appointed had reported for duty.
Being a temporary employee he had no right to be retained on the said post. The petition has no merit and is dismissed.
