Temporary faculty are entitled to regularization and must receive parity in pay with regular faculty due to equivalent duties performed and legal obligations unmet by the university.
Absorption of adhoc faculty as Assistant Professors affirmed, emphasizing equal pay for equal work and recognition of long-term service.
Prolonged temporary appointments can establish grounds for regularization and equal pay for equal work, emphasizing adherence to university regulations.
Service -Having all qualifications required for recruitment of Assistant Professors – If a person is put to officiate on a higher post with greater responsibilities, he is normally entitled to salary....
Regularization of public employment requires adherence to established recruitment processes; negative equality cannot justify irregular appointments.
