The Petitioners are working as part time Revenue Chowkidars. The State Government, in its wisdom, has framed a scheme to grant daily wager status to the part time workers on 27.02.2004. The Government has framed subsequent policy as well. The Respondents are directed to consider the case of the Petitioners for giving the status of daily wagers within eight weeks from today. The writ petition is disposed of, so also the pending application(s), if any.
