2293/2018 Const. P. Noureen Naz and Ors (Petitioner) V/S Province of Sindh and Others (Respondent) Sindh High Court

Bench: Hon'ble Senior Pusine Mr. Justice Nadeem Akhtar, Hon'ble Mr. Justice Adnan-ul-Karim Memon(Author) Order Date: 20-FEB-20

Primarily, the petitioners have approached this Court for regularization of their services in Planning and Development Department, Government of Sindh-- It is an undisputed fact that the petitioners were project employees. Their letters of appointment clearly state that their posts were 'temporary project posts' which would be 'likely to continue till the completion of project and keeping in view the completion of project activities and finalization of scope of work relating to job assignment of the petitioners, the competent authority decided to closure of the project under policy decision, it is beyond the jurisdictional domain of this Court to delve into highly technical and purely policy issues which were better left to be dealt with by experts having relevant knowledge, training and expertise in their respective fields and the competent authorities authorized and empowered by law to do so--The petitioners, in our view, have failed to make out their case for regularization of their service as their case is neither covered under Section 3 of Sindh (Regularization of Ad-hoc and Contract Employees) Act, 2013, nor falls within the ambit of Policy of Government of Sindh, therefore, the instant petitions are hereby dismissed along with pending application(s) with no order as to costs.
