Bare Act

The Orissa Service of Engineers (Validation of Appointment) Act, 2001

This Act validates the appointments of Assistant Engineers who were hired on an ad hoc basis by the Government of Orissa to meet urgent needs in the Works and Housing & Urban Development Departments. It declares these appointments valid and regular despite not following the standard Recruitment Rules. The Act establishes seniority among these engineers based on the order of their names in a provided schedule. Service rendered before the Act's commencement counts for pension, leave, and increments. The Act prevents any legal challenges to these appointments, ensuring the engineers can continue in their positions with security of tenure.
