The notices were accepted by Deputy Advocate General Arshad Majid Malik appearing for Rural Development Department. The State Counsel was directed to file reply within two weeks.

While resisting the arguments of Senior Advocate J.I. Ganai, Deputy Advocate General A.M. Malik submitted that all the petitioners were engaged through backdoor without adopting any procedure and the State Government is on the path of streamlining such engagements by giving chance to all the eligible candidates.
After considering the submissions of both the sides Justice Sanjeev Kumar in the open court issued notices to the State Government which was accepted by Deputy A.G. A.M. Malik and the State Counsel was directed to file his reply within two weeks. However, the court did not stay the operation of the impugned Government order and observed that such prayer will be considered after two weeks. |
