It is the grievance of the petitioner that the applications were made on 4- 4-2015 and on 10-3-2016 bot nothing is informed to the petitioner about the decision taken on the applications.
3) Learned counsel for the petitioners produced copy of Government Resolution dated 31 December 2002 which is made applicable to the cases like the present one. This Government Resolution shows that when other conditions are satisfied, the Education Officer is required to prepare a wait list as per seniority of the applications and then use the wait list for giving appointment as per the seniority. Thus applications received in all the schools within his jurisdiction are to be considered by him for preparing the wait list and it is applicable to the schools receiving grant-in-aid and the schools which are not receiving grants-in-aid. ::: Uploaded on - 03/03/2017 ::: Downloaded on - 05/03/2017 00:38:12 :::

Education Officer and as it is possible that the school had not processed the application which was filed with it when it was bound to do so, as per the directions given in the aforesaid Government Resolution, this Court holds that necessary directions need to be given to the school and also to the Education Officer.
5) In the result, the petition is allowed. The respondent Nos.4 to 6 are hereby directed to process and forward the application given by the petitioners to the Education Officer and the Education Officer is to take decision on that proposal on the basis of the aforesaid Government Resolution and other relevant Government Resolutions.
