The Haryana government has decided to file an appeal in the Supreme Court against the recent decision of the Punjab and Haryana High Court on

"employee regularisation policy", Finance Minister Capt Abhimanyu said today.

The court had recently set aside the "employee regularisation policy" whereby the previous state government had regularised the services of more than 20,000 contractual employees.

Addressing an Intellectuals Conference at Jhajjar on the completion of four years of the NDA government in Centre, Abhimanyu said, "the state government has decided to file an appeal in the Supreme Court.."

The previous Congress government led by Bhupinder Singh Hooda had issued three notifications in 2014, three months before the Assembly polls, and regularised contractual and ad-hoc employees, an official release here quoted Abhimanyu to say.

The minister said that the previous Congress government had left numerous flaws in both reservation to Jats and regularisation policies "for their political benefits". (PTI).
