Absorption and doctrine of legitimate expectation;
1. The legitimate expectation would not override the statutory provision. The doctrine of legitimate expectation can not be invoked for creation of posts to facilitate absorption in the offices of the regular cadres/non cadres. Creation of permanent posts is a matter for the employer and the same is based on policy decision.
2. While transferring any development project and its manpower to revenue budget the provisions provided in the notifications, government orders and circulars quoted earlier must be followed. However, it is to be remembered that executive power can be exercised only to fill in the gaps and the same cannot and should not supplant the law, but only supplement the law.
3. Before regularization of service of the officers and employees of the development project in the revenue budget the provisions of applicable “Bidhimala” must be complied with. Without exhausting the applicable provisions of the “Bidhimala” as quoted above no one is entitled to be regularised in the service of revenue budget since those are statutory provisions.
4. The appointing authority, while regularising the officers and employees in the posts of revenue budget, must comply with the requirements of statutory rules in order to remove future complication. The officers and employees of the development project shall get age relaxation for participation in selection process in any post of revenue budget as per applicable Rules.
5. A mandamus can not be issued in favour of the employees directing the government and its instrumentalities to make anyone regularized in the permanent posts as of right. Any appointment in the posts described in the schedule of Bangladesh Civil Service Recruitment Rules, 1981, Gazetted Officers (Department of Live Stock Service) Recruitment Rules, 1984 and Non-gazetted Employees (Department of Live Stock Service) Recruitment Rules, 1985 bypassing Public Service Commission should be treated as back door appointment and such appointment should be stopped.
6. To become a member of the service in a substantive capacity, appointment by the President of the Republic shall be preceded by selection by a direct recruitment by the PSC. The Government has to make appointment according to recruitment Rules by open competitive examination through the PSC.
7. Opportunity shall be given to eligible persons by inviting applications through public notification and appointment should be made by regular recruitment through the prescribed agency following legally approved method consistent with the requirements of law.
8. It is not the role of the Courts to encourage or approve appointments made outside the constitutional scheme and statutory provisions. It is not proper for the Courts to direct absorption in permanent employment of those who have been recruited without following due process of selection as envisaged by the constitutional scheme. …The State Vs.
