Setting a precedent in service matter on Monday the Supreme Court ruled that regularisation of a contract employee means a fresh appointment into the stream of regular appointment which does not apply retrospectively under the Punjab Regularization Policy 2010.
A three-member bench of the Justice Manzoor Ahmad Malik has adjudicated over a question of law whether the date of regularisation of contract employees is the date of their initial appointment on contract basis or the date of their regularisation under the Regularization Policy 2010.
Authorising a six-page verdict being part of the bench in the matter, Justice Syed Mansoor Ali Shah ruled, “Regularization of a contract employee is … a fresh appointment into the stream of regular appointments. A contractual employee for the first time becomes a civil servant,”
