Honble Dr. B.S. Chauhan, J.—This case arises out of a claim of the petitioners for their appointment as Junior Engineers and on respective posts of operating staff commensurate to the trades in which they claim themselves to be trained apprentices under the provisions of the Uttar Pradesh State Electricity Board Subordinate Electrical and Mechanical Engineering Service Regulations, 1972 (hereinafter called the ‘Regulations 1972). This petition had been decided earlier by a Division Bench judgment of this Court, whereafter the petitioners went up to the Supreme Court as a result whereof the judgment of this Court was set aside on 14th March, 2001 and the Hon’ble Apex Court has remanded the matter under the aforesaid judgment to this Court for deciding the case in accordance with the recruitment Rules which are applicable to the controversy. The Hon’ble Apex Court, while remanding the matter to this Court has, however, upheld and approved the ratio of the Full Bench decision of this Court in the case of Arvind Gautam v. State of U.P. & Ors., 1999 (2) ESC 1394 (All)(FB). The said Full Bench judgment also stood approved by the Apex Court in the case of U.P. Rajya Vidyut Parisha
