                              JUDGMENT

The petitioner appointed Smt.Seema P.M as the Teacher Educator at N.S.S.T.T.I, Thodiyoor with effect from 19.07.2021. However, the approval of her appointment was rejected by Ext.P1 on the reason that she did not pass M.Ed qualification. Specific case of the petitioner is that she is qualified as per the stipulations contained in K.E.R. and it is the case of the petitioner that, NCTE regulations which mandates requirement of M.Ed qualification has not been implemented in the State, since the same has not been adopted by the Government. Petitioner placed reliance upon Ext.P2 to substantiate the same. The petitioner has already submitted Ext.P3 before the 1 st respondent highlighting such grievances.

2. Considering the fact that Ext.P3 is pending consideration before the 1st respondent, I am of the view that, it is only proper that the 1 st respondent takes a decision thereon as expeditiously as possible.

Accordingly, after hearing the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader, this writ petition WPC.No.15082/2024 3 is disposed of, directing the 1 st respondent to take up Ext.P3 and to pass appropriate orders in accordance with law, after hearing the petitioner and affected parties if any. Decision thereon shall be taken within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
