Civil Special Appeal (Writ) No. 999/2001 along with one other appeal which was decided on 15.01.2002 and it was held that Lecturers/members of teaching faculty are entitled of their adhoc services to be counted for the purpose of fixation of pay in the revised pay-scales as and when made admissible and the Special Leave to Appeal preferred by the State of Rajasthan was also rejected by the Hon'ble Supreme Court. However, in few matters special appeals have been preferred by the State of Rajasthan which are pending adjudication before the Division Bench of this Court.
