4810/2020 Const. P. Tanveer Ahmed Siddiqui (Petitioner) V/S Province of Sindh & Ors (Respondent) Sindh High Court
Bench: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Muhammad Karim Khan Agha, Hon'ble Mr. Justice Adnan-ul-Karim Memon(Author) Order Date: 26-MAY-25
It is well settled that contractual appointments ended with contract expiration/termination, and a temporary/contract employee cannot claim permanent status as a matter of right, nor can he /she be reinstated merely for continuing service beyond his/her term after reaching superannuation age. 8. This Court, under Article 199 of the Constitution, cannot order reinstatement of temporary, contract, or ad-hoc employees whose terms had ended with the termination of their contract with allegations. Here the petitioners??? contract was terminated by the order of the majority of the council members in the meeting held on 13.08.2020 and 09.09.2020, as such his contractual period cannot be extended after reaching the age of superannuation. Consequently, this petition is dismissed, with no order regarding costs.
