1.

I.A. No.2718 of 2016 is for condonation of delay of 46 days

in preferring the appeal. There is sufficiency of reasons explained in

the condonation application. The delay is condoned. I.A. is allowed.

The matter is thereafter taken up on merits.

2.

Heard learned counsel for the appellant, counsel for the State

and counsel for the Rajendra Agriculture University.

3.

The learned Single Judge has committed no error in law or

fact by dismissing the writ application vide order dated 10.12.2015,

which is subject matter of challenge in the present Letters Patent

Appeal. Since the appointment of the appellant on the post of

Assistant Professor -cum- Junior Scientist has been held to be bad in

law both by the learned Single Judge as well as by the Division

Bench, there is no occasion for giving any direction. It will have the

effect of overriding the adjudications by a coordinate Bench with

regard to status of the appellant. The salary can only flow in favour of

the petitioner provided his appointment was legal and valid in the very

first place, which has not been such, which has been held so even by

the Division Bench.

4.

The appeal has no merit. It is dismissed.
