' Through this Constitutional petition the petitioners seek setting aside of impugned notification dated 28-5-2002 and pray for its suspension.
2. Brief facts of the case are that the petitioners were appointed as P.T.C. Teachers in the year 1995 and subsequently their services were removed vide order dated 20-8-1999. The petitioners filed an appeal before the Punjab Service Tribunal which was accepted vide order dated 31-10-2002 and the petitioners were directed to be re-instated in service. The petitioners' case had not been finalised for reinstatement when the Government of Punjab has advertised for the appointment of the teachers on contract basis and the grievance of the petitioners is that without re-instating the petitioners on the posts against which the petitioners were re-instated the posts have already been re-advertised.
3. Learned Additional Advocate-General on the other hand states according to the reply submitted by the respondents that there are other 28 teachers whose appeals have been accepted with the direction to re-instate them and also to initiate the proceedings by the Department under the E&D Rules afresh and the proceedings have been initiated and the petitioners' case will be finalised and their case will not be affected by the appointments on contract basis.
4. I have heard the learned counsel for the parties and perused the report and comments. The petitioners should not be affected by the fresh appointment orders if issued to the teachers appointed on contract basis and the judgment of the Punjab Service Tribunal will be implemented has to be kept in mind by the Department before tiling of the posts.
' This petition stands disposed of.
