The State Government in Labour Department by Government Order dated 18.11.1997 taking note of the dearth of qualified training staff in the Government ITIs and as it had affected training of personnel in the field of Data Preparation and Computer Software and Electronic Mechanic and other training programmes, permitted appointment of Guest Lecturers in the Government ITIs at Rs.50/- as honorarium per hour. The said honorarium has been enhanced from time to time and presently the honorarium of Rs.150/- per hour is being paid to the Guest Lecturers. The Joint Director of Employment and Training, Directorate issued order dated 23.01.2001 (Annexure-A2 in W.P.No.27245/2024), authorizing the Principals of concerned ITIs to appoint Guest Lecturers on contract basis, on the conditions enumerated therein. The said order reads as follows: - 74 - WP No. 47967 of 2018 C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS DzÉÃ±À «µÀAiÀÄ:- PÉÊUÁjPÁ vÀgÀ¨ÉÃw ¸ÀA¸ÉÜUÀ½UÉ Cwy ¨ÉÆÃzsÀPÀgÀ£ÀÄß vÉUÉzÀÄPÉÆ¼Àî®Ä C£ÀÄªÀÄw ¤ÃqÀÄªÀ §UÉÎ-G¯ÉèÃR:- 1) ¸ÀPÁðj DzÉÃ±À ¸ÀA:J¯ïr 8 EnL 97 (¨sÁUÀ) 2) ¥ÁæZÁAiÀÄðgÀ ¥Àæ¸ÁÛªÀ£ÉUÀ¼ÀÄ. - : : - C£ÀÄ§AzsÀzÀ°è £ÀªÀÄÆ¢¹gÀÄªÀ PÉÊUÁjPÁ vÀgÀ¨ÉÃw ¸ÀA¸ÉÜUÀ¼À ¥ÁæZÁAiÀÄðgÀÄUÀ¼ÀÄ CªÀgÀ ¸ÀA¸ÉÜAiÀÄ°è QjAiÀÄ vÀgÀ¨ÉÃw C¢üPÁjUÀ¼À PÉÆgÀvÉAiÀÄ£ÀÄß ¥Àæ¸ÁÛ¦¹, PÉ®ªÀÅ ªÀÈwÛUÀ½UÉ ¥ÁoÀ ¥ÀæªÀZÀ£ÀUÀ¼À£ÀÄß ¨ÉÆÃ¢ü¸À®Ä vÁvÀÌ°PÀªÁV Cwy ¨ÉÆÃzsÀPÀgÀ£ÀÄß UÉÆvÀÄÛ ¥Àr¹PÉÆ¼ÀÄîªÀ PÀÄjvÀÄ ¥Àæ¸ÁÛªÀ£É ¸À°è¹ ªÀÄAdÆgÁw PÉÆÃjgÀÄvÁÛgÉ.

It was made clear that the Guest Lecturer shall not be entrusted with any other work except the teaching work. Every year, such order was issued in respect of appointment of Guest Lecturers. The order/circular dated 24.11.2015 (Annexure-A4 in W.P.No.27245/2024) makes it clear that depending on the admission of students to the course, if Training Officers are required then only Guest Lecturers could be appointed. Further, the order dated 18.01.2018 (Annexure-A5 in W.P.No.27245/2024) also - 77 - WP No. 47967 of 2018 C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS made it clear that Guest Lecturers shall be appointed only for 11 months.

5. In this batch of writ petitions, the petitioners claim that they were appointed as Guest Lecturers/JTO’s between the years 1999 and 2012 and they have rendered more than 10 years of service and some of the petitioners have rendered nearly 20 years of service. Contending that they have worked for more than 10 years; worked against sanctioned posts of JTOs; and as they possessed required qualification, they approached the Tribunal seeking for regularization/absorption and also questioning the notification dated 19.02.2018 issued for direct recruitment of JTOs. The Tribunal, under impugned order holding that the petitioners are appointed as part-time lecturers for a period of 11 months in a year with artificial break and that their appointment is not regular appointment, rejected their prayer. Questioning the impugned order of the Tribunal, the petitioners are before this Court in the above batch of writ petitions. - 78 - WP No. 47967 of 2018 C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS 6. Heard learned counsel Sri.M.B.Kanavi, Sri.P.M.Siddamallappa, Sri.Pradeep C.S., Sri.Subramanya Bhat, Sri.M.K.Prithveesh and Sri.B.Ramesh, learned counsel for petitioners and learned Additional Advocate General Sri.Reuben Jacob along with Sri.Harisha A.S., Additional Government Advocate for respondent-State and Sri.K.M.Prakash, learned counsel for respondent No.3/Karnataka Public Service Commission. Perused the entire writ petition papers.

7. Learned counsel for the petitioners would submit that the petitioners possessed the qualification prescribed for the post of JTOs and they are working against the sanctioned JTO posts, for more than 10 to 15 years. It is their contention that continuation of the petitioners for such a long period would mean that there is a necessity of their services. Though they are appointed as part-time Lectures/JTO’s, they are discharging full-time duty of JTOs. Further, they would submit that the Guest Lecturers are made to work for 6 to 8 hours per day on all 6 days. - 79 - WP No. 47967 of 2018 C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS In that regard, they have placed on record the materials along with memo to establish the classes taken by them Including trade practical classes taken by them.

8. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioners would submit that the action of the respondents is totally arbitrary as the respondents have extracted work from the petitioners on full-time basis by paying only for 4 hours per day. It is further submitted that the Tribunal failed to appreciate the fact that the petitioners are working for full-time against the sanctioned posts and that the petitioners would possess requisite qualification prescribed for the post of JTO. Learned counsel for the petitioners would also submit that in pursuance of the interim order passed by this Court, the Government constituted a committee under the Chairmanship of Deputy Secretary of Government, Skill Development Entrepreneurship and Livelihood Department to examine the request of the petitioners for absorption/regularization. Further, it is submitted that it negated the request of the petitioners - 80 - WP No. 47967 of 2018 C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS with an observation that there is no provision to regularize their services as Guest Lecturers. Learned counsel would submit that the Committee also failed to appreciate the petitioners’ services as Guest Lecturers for nearly 20 years.

9. Sri.M.K.Prithveesh, learned counsel for the petitioners apart from the above contentions strenuously contended that the respondents extracted work from the petitioners on full-time basis. However, honorarium was paid only for 3 or 4 hours per day. Further, he submits that the petitioners are engaged as Guest Lecturers for 11 months with one month break and again they are appointed as Guest Lecturers. Therefore, he submits that there is necessity of petitioners’ service and even though there is necessity of service of the petitioners, the respondents are not ready to regularize their services solely on the ground that they are to be paid regular salary. Thus, learned counsel appearing for the petitioners would pray for allowing the writ petitions and to direct the - 81 - WP No. 47967 of 2018 C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS respondents to frame a scheme for regularization of the petitioners as against the sanctioned post of JTO’s.

10. On the other hand, learned Additional Advocate General Sri.Reuben Jacob for respondents would submit that the petitioners/Guest Lecturers were appointed or their services were taken only on the basis of requirement in that particular ITI with a condition that they would be discontinued when regular appointments to the posts of JTOs would be made. Further, he submits that the Guest Lecturers were appointed on the basis of honorarium for hourly teaching and they were not being paid any consolidated pay or put on any pay scale. Learned AAG would further submit that the Guest Lecturers were permitted to be appointed by the Principals based on the need of that particular ITI. It is his submission that they were not appointed by the Appointing Authority though they were appointed against the sanctioned posts of JTOs. It is submitted that the Guest Lecturers were being paid Rs.50/- per hour and in pursuance of the interim order - 82 - WP No. 47967 of 2018 C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS

passed by this Court the same was revised to Rs.110-Rs.120/- per hour. Learned AAG referring to the order of the Director of Employment and Training dated 20.04.2012 which authorizes Principals of Industrial Training Institutes to appoint Guest Faculties/Lecturers who have the qualification for appointment as JTOs for a period of 11 months, for 4 hours per day for 6 days in a week. It is further submitted that Guest Lecturers/JTO’s are teaching for a maximum of 24 hours in a week as against regular lecturer who teaches about 7 hours per day for 6 days i.e., 42 hours per week. 11. Learned AAG would further submit that there are different trades in each of the ITIs and depending on the admission and strength of each trade, Guest Lecturers/Faculties are being appointed and the number of Guest Lecturers/Faculties appointed each year is a floating one, depending on the admission to a particular trade. Learned AAG specifically contends that, since the petitioners are not appointed on regular basis and they are - 83 - WP No. 47967 of 2018 C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS

only working for few hours in a day receiving honorarium, they would not be entitled for absorption or regularization. Learned AAG placing reliance on the judgment of the Hon'ble Apex Court in UNION OF INDIA AND OTHERS v/s ILMODEVI AND ANOTHER reported in (2021) 20 SCC 290 contends that part-time employees are not entitled to seek regularization, since they are working only for few hours against regular sanctioned posts. Thus, he would pray for dismissal of the writ petitions. 12. Having heard the learned counsel for the parties and on perusal of the entire writ petition papers, the only point which falls for our consideration is as to whether the petitioners who are working as part-time Guest Faculties/ Lecturers/JTO’s would be entitled for regularization and whether the impugned order passed by the Tribunal warrants interference? 13. Answer to the above point would be in the negative for the following reasons: - 84 - WP No. 47967 of 2018 C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS It is not in dispute that the petitioners are working as Guest Faculties/Lecturers/JTO’s against the sanctioned posts of Junior Training Officers in Government Industrial Training Institutes of the Department of Employment and Training. Some of the petitioners are working for more than 15 to 20 years and some of them are working for less than 10 years.

14. The nomenclature of the post in which the petitioners are working is Part-time Lecturers/Faculties in Government Industrial Training Institutes. Further, though petitioners are working against sanctioned posts of JTOs, they are not appointed by the Appointing Authority. However, on authorization, they are appointed for a period of 11 months in each year by the Principals of respective Industrial Training Institutes. It is also an admitted fact that the petitioners are neither paid salary nor are they put on any scale of pay. The petitioners are being paid honorarium per hour for a maximum of 4 hours in a day for 6 days in a week i.e., maximum of 24 hours in a week - 85 - WP No. 47967 of 2018 C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS as against 42 hours working for a regular/permanent lecturer or Junior Training Officer. 15. The Government Order dated 18.11.1997 (Annexure-A2 in W.P.No.47967/2018) permitted appointment of qualified persons as Guest Lecturers as there was dearth of trained teachers in the Government Industrial Training Institutes on payment of Rs.50/- per hour as honorarium which is revised to Rs.110-120/- per hour. The order dated 24.11.2015 of the Commissioner `for Employment and Training permitted the Principals of each ITIs to appoint Guest Lecturers only against vacant Junior Training Officers posts that too if a particular trade has admission and if there is a necessity of Junior Training Officers in that particular trade.

16. Learned counsel for the petitioners contended that though the orders issued by the Director/Commissioner of Employment and Training permitted appointment of Guest Faculties/Lecturers and to assign work for 4 hours per day for 6 days in a week, the Principals of each ITIs utilized - 86 - WP No. 47967 of 2018 C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS the services of Guest Lecturers/Faculties as whole time Lecturers and utilized their services during the examination and also paper evaluation, however, paid only maximum of 4 hours per day as honorarium. Learned counsel Sri.M.K.Prithveesh referring to some of the documents produced along with memo dated 17.06.2026 tried to demonstrate that some of the petitioners worked for full time. However, on going through those documents it is seen that they were assigned work for only 4 hours per day and paid honorarium for 4 hours per day for 6 days in a week. The petitioners have failed to demonstrate that they were working on full-time and their services were utilized for the whole day on all working days. Moreover, the orders issued by the Director/Commissioner of Employment and Training had not permitted the Principals of ITIs to extract the work from Guest Lecturers/Faculties for more than 4 hours per day. If any Principal had extracted work for more than 4 hours per day, it would be unauthorized. None of the petitioners have placed on record any document to - 87 - WP No. 47967 of 2018

C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS establish that their services were utilized for more than 4 hours per day and having received honorarium for more than 4 hours in a day. In the absence of any cogent material in that regard, it is not open for the petitioners to contend that services of Guest Lecturers/Faculties were utilized on full-time basis. 17. Learned counsels for the petitioners have placed reliance on the decisions of the Hon'ble Apex Court in the matter of regularization of daily wagers or contractual appointees and also have placed reliance on the judgments of Hon'ble Apex Court with regard to equal pay for equal work. The petitioners have placed on record the decision of the Hon'ble Apex Court from STATE OF KARNATAKA AND OTHERS v/s UMADEVI AND OTHERS reported in (2006) 4 SCC 1 till the recent judgment in JAGGO v/s UNION OF INDIA AND OTHERS reported in 2024 SCC Online SC 2836 to contend that the petitioners would be entitled for regularization on the principles laid down therein. In the - 88 - WP No. 47967 of 2018 C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS

decisions on which the petitioners placed reliance, the Hon'ble Apex Court was considering the cases of daily wagers or contractual employees appointed on whole time basis. Therefore, those decision would have no application to the facts of the present case wherein the petitioners herein are working only as part-time Lecturers/Faculties/JTO’s i.e., for maximum of 4 hours per day for 6 days in a week. 18. The Hon'ble Apex Court in STATE OF TAMIL NADU THROUGH SECRETARY TO GOVERNMENT, COMMERCIAL TAXES AND REGISTRATION DEPARTMENT, SECRETARIAT AND ANOTHER v/s A.SINGAMUTHU reported in (2017) 4 SCC 113 was considering the case of Part-time employee who was subsequently appointed against Full-time post who sought regularization. The Government Order dated 28.02.2006 issued by the State of Tamil Nadu directed regularization of service of Full-time daily wage employees. Learned Single Judge had allowed the writ petition of the part-time employee directing regularization - 89 - WP No. 47967 of 2018 C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS

of his service, on completion of 10 years of service. The State had filed writ appeal and the writ appeal was dismissed taking note of the fact that subsequently, the part-time employee therein was appointed against a full-time vacancy and affirmed the order of the learned Single Judge. The orders of learned Single Judge as well as Division Bench were taken up to Hon'ble Apex Court. The Hon'ble Apex Court was of the opinion that since, the employee was on part-time basis earlier and held that the part-time employee would be entitled for regularization only from the date he was appointed to regular post. In the course of the judgment, the Hon'ble Apex Court at paragraphs 8 and 16 has held as under: “8.Part-time or casual employment is meant to serve the exigencies of administration. It is a settled principle of law that continuance in service for long period on part- time or temporary basis confers no right to seek regularisation in service. The person who is engaged on temporary or casual basis is well aware of the nature of his employment and he consciously accepted the same at the time of seeking employment. Generally, while directing that - 90 - WP No. 47967 of 2018 C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS

temporary or part-time appointments be regularised or made permanent, the courts are swayed by the long period of service rendered by the employees. However, this may not be always a correct approach to adopt especially when the scheme of regularisation is missing from the rule book and regularisation casts huge financial implications on public exchequer. 16. In State of Rajastanv. Daya Lal, this Court has considered the scope of regularisation of irregular or part-time appointments in all possible eventualities and this Court clearly laid down that part-time employees are not entitled to seek regularisation as they do not work against any sanctioned posts. It was also held that part-time employees in government-run institutions can in no case claim parity in salary with regular employees of the Government on the principle of equal pay for equal work. Relevant excerpt from the said judgment is as under: (SCC pp 435-36, para 12) “12. We may at the outset refer to the following well- settled principles relating to regularisation and parity in pay, relevant in the context of these appeals: (i) The High Courts, in exercising power under Article 226 of the Constitution will not issue directions for regularisation, absorption or permanent continuance, unless the employees claiming regularisation had been appointed in - 91 - WP No. 47967 of 2018 C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS

pursuance of a regular recruitment in accordance with relevant rules in an open competitive process, against sanctioned vacant posts. The equality clause contained in Articles 14 and 16 should be scrupulously followed and courts should not issue a direction for regularisation of services of an employee which would be violative of constitutional scheme. While something that is irregular for want of compliance with one of the elements in the process of selection which does not go to the root of the process, can be regularised, back door entries, appointments contrary to the constitutional scheme and/ or appointment of ineligible candidates cannot be regularised. (ii) Mere continuation of service by a temporary or ad hoc or daily-wage employee, under cover of some interim orders of the court, would not confer upon him any right to be absorbed into service, as such service would be “litigious employment”. Even temporary, ad hoc or daily-wage service for a long number of years, let alone service for one or two years, will not entitle such employee to claim regularisation, if he is not working against a sanctioned post. Sympathy and sentiment cannot be grounds for passing any order of regularisation in the absence of a legal right.

(iii) Even where a scheme is formulated for regularisation with a cut- off date (that is a scheme providing that persons who had put in a specified number of years of service and continuing in employment as on the cut- off date), it is not possible to others who were appointed subsequent to the cut-off date, to claim or contend that the - 92 - WP No. 47967 of 2018 C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS scheme should be applied to them by extending the cut- off date or seek a direction for framing of fresh schemes providing for successive cut-off dates. (iv) Part-time employees are not entitled to seek regularisation as they are not working against any sanctioned posts. There cannot be a direction for absorption, regularisation or permanent continuance of part-time temporary employees. (v) Part-time temporary employees in government-run institutions cannot claim parity in salary with regular employees of the Government on the principle of equal pay for equal work. Nor can employees in private employment, even if serving full-time, seek parity in salary with government employees. The right to claim a particular salary against the State must arise under a contract or under a statute. [See State of Karnataka v. Uma Devi (3), M.Raja v. CEERI educational Society, S.C. Chandra v. State of Jharkhand, Kurukshetra Central Coop. Bank Ltd. v. Mehar Chand and Official Liquidator v. Dayanand.]” (emphasis supplied)”

In another decision, the Hon'ble Apex Court in ILMODEVI(supra) was considering regularization of part-time sweepers who were working for less than 5 hours a day, held that the High Court in exercise of power under Article 226 of the Constitution of India cannot direct the Government and/or the Department to formulate a - 93 - WP No. 47967 of 2018 C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS particular regularization policy. Further observed that framing of any scheme is not a function of the Court and is the sole prerogative of the Government. 19. The Tribunal under impugned order placing reliance on UMADEVI (supra) observed that the petitioners have not produced initial appointment orders to ascertain whether they were appointed against sanctioned posts and that they have rendered continuous service for 10 years. The Tribunal, further observed that the appointment of petitioners is not in accordance with Article 14 of the Constitution of India with equal opportunity for participation to others. Those observations by the Tribunal were uncalled for. However, as observed above, the petitioners were working against sanctioned posts but not as full-time lecturers/faculties and they were not appointed by the appointing authority i.e., Director/ Commissioner. The Guest Lecturers were permitted to be appointed by the Principal of respective Industrial Training Institute, based on the need of that particular Institute, on - 94 - WP No. 47967 of 2018

C/W WP No. 27132 of 2018 WP No. 37189 of 2018 AND 4 OTHERS payment of honorarium to teach maximum of 4 hours per day for 6 days in a week. 20. Viewed from any angle, the petitioners have not made out any ground to direct regularization. There is no merit in the writ petitions and accordingly, the writ petitions are dismissed.
