    Case Summary: The High Court of Punjab and Haryana dismissed Mahavir Sharma's petition seeking a writ of mandamus to be appointed as Store Officer without participating in the recruitment process. Sharma, a contractual Divisional Assistant since 2012, argued his long service and experience warranted direct consideration for the newly advertised Store Officer position. Justice Deepak Gupta rejected the plea, holding that Sharma's contractual posting in a different position in 2011 did not create any enforceable right to the advertised post. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
