NEW DELHI: The Delhi high court on Tuesday vacated its interim order for continuation of services of specialists engaged as fellows with the Delhi Assembly Research Centre who were sacked by lieutenant governor (LG) VK Saxena in July, as it said that the apex court had earlier declined to stay the termination.
Therefore, justice Subramonium Prasad said, propriety demanded that the high court ought not have passed the interim order.
The decision comes days after the services department moved the high court seeking vacation of its September 21 order passed on the petitions filed by 17 of the terminated fellows.
"This court is inclined to vacate the stay granted by it in its Order dated 21.09.2023. However, it is always open for the Petitioner to approach the Apex Court to get appropriate clarifications," the high court said.
The services department on September 27 argued that the order cannot be sustained in view of the absence of sanction for the posts by the LG and the pendency of the issue regarding control of services in the Union territory before the top court.

In Badal’s departure, opportunity for SAD
Sukhbir Singh Badal's resignation as the president of the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) is not surprising given his continuance at the helm of the party became difficult after the Akal Takht, the spiritual seat of the Sikh community, declared him a tankhaiya (someone guilty of religious misconduct).
