Subsequently, there was exchange of correspondence between the I.'l.:levattl

Ministry and the Office of the P1 ime Minister regarding reinstatement nf'

petitioners in service. The Prime 'Minister allowed reinstatement. on

02.05.2012 without cancelling/withdrawal of termination orders dated

21.05.2011. lt is pertinei1t to observe that since the Prime Minister was

disqualified w.e.f. 26.04.2012 and the judgment was handed dow11

subsequently, therefore -in order to validate the acts of Prime Minister, an

Ordinance was promulgated i.e . the Validation Ordinance No.06 of' 2012

valiclati~g the act of Prime l'v1inister from 26.04.2012 to 19.06.2012. The

referred Ordinance lived its 'life and expired there-after. Mr. Naveed I

Saleemi, the then Chairman, Agricultural Policy Institute, implemented

the orders of the Prime Minister. A writ petition was filed by the

en1ployees of PARC challenging reinstatement of 269 employees. The

referred writ petition was dismissed and Intra Court Appeal (lCA No.3 7tJ.

20 12) was filed, which also was disposed of on 30.05.2018 allowing

PARC to scrutinize the reinstatement of 269 employees in fair, impartial

and indiscriminate manner. Earlier, on 10.04.2013, PARC submitted 11

comprehensive report' regarding appointment of 269 employees and as 11

result thereof, the Ministry of National Food, Security and H,~~;can : ll

directed PARC to resolve the isstle on its own in light of the fact that. it is

an autonomous body . Subsequent to the disposal of above rne11t ioru;d

lCA, various show cause notices we~e issued to 269 employees and so1:~w of which culminated in termination of service. The referred show cu\lt)l!

~ .1 ; (1 -_\V ·, ' ' \~~ 'ti~~~jgi'smissal orders were challenged by way of petitions under ~~~ .,( ,

1rticle 199 of the Constitution, which were dismissed by the J udge-i11 -

Th~ :Writ petitions were ordered to be heard along with appeals.

'· 3:··' .. .;Learned counsel for the petitioners/appellants, inter alia, contended

that the matter regarding appointment of employees stood finalized, ~~ ~~

the· Prime Minister directed their reinstatement in service and at this

subsequent stage, it could not be reopened as it has become a past and

closed transaction. It was further contended that petitioners have acquired

right, which cannot be taken away in an arbitrary and whimsical manner.

It was submitted that cWtl though service regulations of PARC are non ­

statuto ry yet a pelition under Article 199 of the Constitution is

maintainable inasmuch as respondents while issuing show cause notices,

have tlouted the law; in light o f judgment of Hon'ble Supreme Court of'

Pakistan reporred as 2013 SCMR 707, a petition under Article 199 o l' the

Const-itution is rnaintainc:tble where rules of service are non-statwnry, il'

th e re is violation of principles of natural justice or the law.

4 . Learned counsel ~·or the respondent Co uncil, inter alia, contended

that vvrit petitions arc not maintainable, as the service regulations ol'

PAl"<..C are non-statutory . It was further contended that order of the then

Prime Minister regarding reinstatement of employees in service is also

without lawful authority inasmuch as order was issued on 02 .05.2012,

whereas Hon'ble Supreme Court of P akistan gave effect to the

disqualification of P rime 1v1inister w .e.f. 26 .04 .2012 and the Validation

Ordinance promulgated to protect the act of Prime J:v1inister lapsed lifter

120 days, hence the protection, if any, has gone . In support of referred

contention, Mr. Sajcel Sheharyar Swati, Advocate Supreme Court placed I

reliance on case reported a~; ' Pakistan Medical & Dental Council thmuglt

Present and 3-others Vs . Muhammad Fahad M a lik and I 0-others' (20 I X

SCMR 1956) .

5. Learned Attorney General for Pakistan also addressed the

arguments and submitted that PARC is an autonom o us body created and . l

governed under Pakistan Agricultural Research Council Ordinance, 11JH I :

. .,...-~\'\l.~ l\ t)\ Ltya·~,.~'&i£Y>itted that Prime Minister has no role in the functioning o!' tile l(j,l:>' . .tl~,

~un~l and only Federal Government can give policy direction to tile

1,, Q.Hil-~\-'ias provided in section 5 of the Ordinance, whereas tile

.. : ntt\onmg of the Council vests with the Board of Governors. Leanu~d , ,.l f

.Al •'\ 1, ' ' (J, j· ,·' , . Attorney General · placed reliance on case reported as ,.Miss Benazlr

\ , ,I

1:3hutto Vs. Federation of Pakistan etc.' (PLD 1988 SC 416) to argue that

even curative Ordinance expires after lapse of 120-days .

6 . ln response to the arguments of learned Attorney General fbr

Pakistan and Mr. Sajeel Slleharyar Swati, Advocate Supreme Court fur

PARC, learned counsel for the petitioners in W .P . No .1932-20 18 and

others argued that the effect of repeal of law is that amendment made

outlives the Ordinance. Reliance was placed on case reported as

·---·---------------· --------- -------- ·-- --·

I I 4 ' ICA No.294 · 2018 etc.

'Federation ofPak·i~ran Vs . br. Mobashir Hassan' (PLD 2012 SC 106). It

was submitrcd that the facts and reasoning in case reported as 'PakisL111

Medical & Dental Council through Present and 3-others Vs. Muharnm;td

fahad Malik and H)-others' \'2018 SCMR 1956) are different from till:

facts ancl circumstances of instant case . Learned counsel also pL1cnl

reliance on Interpretation of Statutes by 1vfr. S.M. Zafar as well as case

reported as 'Government ofPunjab through Secretary Home DepartnH:tll

Vs. Zia Ullah Khan and 2-others' (1992 SCMR 602).

7. Arguments on behalf of learned counsels for the parties have been

heard and the documents, placed on record, examined with their aiJ\c

assistance.

' 8. . As noted above that the appellants and petitioners have chalktJgt:d

show cause notices issued by PARC regarding their reinstatement in

service and in some cases, termination orders.

9. It is an admitted position that terms and conditions ot' servicl! t>f

employees of PARC a re governed by Pakistan Agricult1.11'Lll F~L!:lvar~.·ll

Council Employees Service Regulations, 1984. The reFerred 1-tcgttlat itlll ~>

are non-statutory and the Judge-in-Chambers, while handillg dowll ilw

impugned judgment, has elaborately dealt with the issue. None: t >!' I he

counsel for the appellants and the petitioners were able to cntJtrovt~l · t 111~

position hence it remains an admitted and accepted position that nile~; ()1·

service ofPARC are non-statutory. ,·

10. It is trite law tha t where rules of service of any Organizatit>~l till' I: l)e c n 1-sPl1;utory, the relationship between the employer and clnpluy('t ' ~ H i~;

'master and servant' and a petition under Article 199 t d' lllc

not maintainable. An exception to this genc·ral ruh" was

• ". 1'<· -:"''. 'c'i:eEl!~<!d_ ~lY the Hon'ble Supreme Court of Pakistan in case reported as I • ' r ··.' • '". ~\ ·· .• {) I r

· :De'f~hce · 'officers Housing Authority Vs. Federation of Pakistan' (20 13

SCMR 1707). In the referred judgment, the august Apex Court obset vcd

that even where the rules of service of are non-statutory, il' til en: is

violation of principles of • natural justice or there is some illcg,llity

otherwise, a petition under Article 199 of the Constitut irm IS

maintainable.

11. On the touchstone ofca:..•c reported as 2013 SMR 1707 supra, it is In

be examined whether respondent Council has committed any hreacl1 ol'

natural justice and/or illegality otherwise. Notices have been issued by

PARC, meaning thereby that opportunity of hearing is being provided or

has been provided to the employees hence there is no violation of

principles of natural justice.

12. PARC is creation of Pakistan Agricultural Research Counc il

Ordinance, 1981. Under ·section 6 of the Ordinance, the managernent and

the functioning of the Council vests with the Board of Goyernors . The I

Federal Government, as such, has no role in the governance Dr

functioning of the Council, however, Pederal Government ca11 tssue

policy directives from time to time. In the referred facts and

circumstances, the decision by the then Prime Minister to reinstate 269

employees on 02.05.2012 carries no weight inasmuch the Prime Minister

does not surface in the functioning of PARC. Even-otherwise, if decision

is to be regarded as c ne of Federal Government, the fact that it order~;

reinstatement of employees, cannot be regarded as one of policy a11d tilL:

then management of PARC, following the decision, committed a11

illegality . In view ol" referred position, reinstatement in service of tl1c

employees, cannot be regarded as creating a vested right or t.hat it uecut11c

past and closed transaction. The effort is being made by JlAl~C tu

examine each case on its merits by issuing show cause not lcc;s and

scrutinizing the qualification and eligibility of every employee.

13. The petitioners/appellants have no locus standi, c.tt this stage, t() .\ '

assail action on behalf of PARC. In this behalf, it is trite law that a shL1Jw . d \.(• fie lrucu· . . d d · · l 1 1 1 1 ·

0'1-l~\\\\'~ · cause noll~ 1s not an or er or a ec1s1on >ut on y sets t 1e w 1ec 111

motion. A petition, challenging t·he issue of show cause notice, is 11ut

-1 ~~ Jjit"l<tcltlnable unless same Is w1rhout lawful authority or jurisdiction .

f illegality exists in the referred orders . In view of above, impugned

judgment handed clown by the Judge-in-Chambers, does not suffer from

any error of law or fact, calling for interference in the appeals; writ

petitions challenging show cause notices, also fail due to the reasons
