RESERVED ON : 9th March, 2017.
PRONOUNCED ON : 5h May, 2017
JUDGMENT (Per S. V. Gangapurwala, J):
1. Rule. Rule made returnable forthwith. With consent
of parties, the petitions are taken up for final disposal.
2. Heard the learned counsel for the parties.
3. All these writ petitions assail the Government
Resolution dated 02.12.2014 issued by the School Education
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt Department, Government of Maharashtra, Mantralaya, Mumbai
to the extent of condition to grant permission to the
additional divisions of the schools from the years 2014-
2015 on non grant basis. The petitioners further seek
relief that the same is required to be granted from the
year 2010-11 as was granted by the Education Officer
Latur, pursuant to his order in July, 2011 and that too on
grant-in-aid basis.
4. All these petitions are based on similar set of
facts and involve common questions. To avoid rigmarole,
they are decided together.
5. The learned counsel for respective petitioners so
also the learned Addl. Government Pleader and the learned
counsel for the Education Officer have advanced their
arguments.
6. Mr. Khandare, the learned counsel for some of the
petitioners submits that the divisions which were already
sanctioned to various schools were declared surplus for
want of sufficient students. They were closed. Such
divisions were sanctioned and absorbed with the schools
where the strength of students existed and the additional
divisions were admissible by virtue of the order passed by
the Education Officer in July, 2011. The learned counsel
submits that the Education Officer was competent to
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt sanction, allot divisions at his level. Moreover, the
enquiry was conducted, enquiry reports were received by the
Government. The Ghodmode Committee was appointed for
holding enquiry. The said Committee submitted report to the
Government. Due to the objections regarding conduct of the
enquiry and to the report, the Government was required to
give second thought to the problem. The said report was not
accepted. A decision to hold enquiry afresh was taken.
Physical inspection of the school was made in order to
find out the actual physical strength of the students. On
receipt of the report of the inspection, the Government
Resolution dated 02.12.2014 was issued. Out of 58 schools
to which divisions were allotted, 37 schools having 147
divisions are found to be legal. Out of 20 schools, reports
regarding 14 schools have been received, however no
decision for legalization of divisions in these 14 school
is taken. The learned counsel submits that the said
Government Resolution dated 02.12.2014 states that
appointment of the teachers would be considered on no
grant basis from the year 2013-2014 as per existing grant-
in-aid norms. The petitioners are objecting to the said
conditions.
7. According to the learned counsel, the Maharashtra
Employees of Private Schools (Conditions of Service)
Regulation Act, 1977 regulates the service conditions of
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt the employees. Rules have been framed, regulating the
procedure. Field of grant of permission to open schools,
sanction of additional divisions in existing schools,
sanction of new divisions, required students for
maintaining such divisions etc. is governed by the
Executive instructions and not the Act passed by the
Legislature. Time to time, the Government resolutions and
circulars are issued. The staffing pattern is sanctioned
considering the number of divisions in the schools. The
sanction of divisions is linked with the number of
students studying in the class. The policy is ever
changing.
The learned counsel submits that the parliament, by
virtue of 86th Amendment Act, 2002, inserted Article 21-A
thereby making right to education a fundamental right for
the students within the age group of 6 to 14 years. They
have fundamental right to free education. The same would
include payment of salary to the teacher so that students
within the said age group would not require to pay for the
same. The learned counsel submits that in order to
implement the Constitutional Policy enshrined under Article
21-A of the Constitution of India, the parliament enacted
"The Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education
Act, 2009 (hereinafter referred to as the Right to
Education Act). The same was enforced from the year 2010.
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt The learned counsel submits that the edifice of the Right
to Education Act is based upon free and compulsory
education up to the age of 14 years and quality education.
8. The learned counsel submits that because of
introduction of the Right to Education Act, the statutory
obligation is cast upon the Government to shoulder the
responsibility of providing funds for carrying out the
provisions of the Act. Reference can be had to Section 7 of
the said Act. Section 8 of the Act mandates appropriate
Government to provide free and compulsory elementary
education for every child. Section 25 of the Right to
Education Act makes provisions of pupil and teacher ratio
as specified in schedule to the Act and further makes it
compulsory to maintain the said ratio. Thus, the change is
brought in by the Right to Education Act providing the
pupil- teacher ratio linked directly to the strength of
students in the particular school and as such now the same
would not be regulated by the executive instructions but
by the provisions of the statutes enacted by the
Parliament. The learned counsel further submits that the
instructions issued from to time under Government
Resolutions or circulars, earlier were superseded by one
such Government Resolution dated 13.12.2013. The said
Government Resolution clearly states that the norms for
grant of divisions issued and which were in existence have
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt been superseded after the enforcement of the Right to
Education Act. The learned counsel submits that time and
again, the Government Resolutions and circulars are issued
with a view to enforce the provisions of the Right to
Education Act, thereby prescribing procedure for
determining the posts of teacher with reference to the
strength of students in a particular school.
9. The learned counsel states that two circulars dated
10.05.2010, 18.06.2010 and Government Resolution dated
14.11.2013 are placed on record. The learned counsel also
relies on the Government Resolution dated 28.08.2015 to
contend that the said Government Resolution is issued
after the impugned Government Resolution which clearly
mentions the fact that division system has been abolished
and therefore strength of students available in the class
is required to be considered for grant of post of teacher.
According to the leaned counsel, the Government Resolution
dated 02.12.2014 is contrary to the Government Resolution
dated 02.12.2015 and Government Resolution dated
14.11.2013 so also de hors the provisions of the Right to
Education Act. The same is not in consonance with the
object and spirit of the Right to Education Act. The
Government cannot exercise any powers contrary to the
provisions of the Right to Education Act. The action taken
by the authorities by virtue of Government Resolution
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt dated 02.12.2014 and letter dated 04.08.2014 and other
instructions are contrary to the Constitutional Scheme
envisaged under Article 21-A and the provisions of the
Right to Education Act. In the impugned Government
Resolution, the appointment of teachers are not considered
on the basis of strength of students as contemplated under
the Right to Education Act but on the basis of divisions
sanctioned in a particular school. The Government
Resolution dated 02.12.2014 though speaks of the provisions
of the Right to Education Act, however, the same is
contrary to the provisions of the said Act and is based on
the earlier Government Resolutions and it only takes into
consideration the order passed by the Education Officer
without considering the pupil- teacher ratio. The
appointment of the teachers commensurate with the strength
of the students is required to be considered on grant-in-
aid basis.
10. Mr. Khandare, the learned counsel further submits
that the Right to Education Act is a Central Enactment and
the same will prevail over all other statute and, the
provisions of the Right to Education Act will have to be
applied with all its vigors. The learned counsel relies
judgment of the Apex court in a case of Kalyani Mathivanan
Vs. K. V. Jeyaraj and others, reported in (2015) 6 Supreme
Court cases 363.
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt
11. The learned counsel further submits that the the
essential object and purpose of the Right to Education Act
is to provide access to justice to primary school
teachers. The Constitutional Guarantee of free and
compulsory primary education is given practical content by
the Act. The learned counsel relies on the judgment of
Division Bench of this Court in case of Litaka Rajaram Mane
Vs. State of Maharashtra, reported in 2013 (4) Mh.L.J.
244.
12. Mr.Panpatte, the learned counsel for some of the
petitioners canvassed the following submissions:
The Education Officer had sanctioned the divisions
of the schools, the said divisions were earlier attached
with the schools which were closed down and the Education
Officer has the necessary power to sanction the grant-in-
aid divisions of the closed schools to the existing
schools where these additional divisions are admissible. To
substantiate the contention, the learned counsel relies on
the Government Resolution dated 06.12.2007 and 12.06.2007
and communication dated 20.11.2008. The learned counsel
submits that while issuing the Government Resolution dated
02.12.2014, the State has lost sight of these Government
Resolutions. When the Education Officer has been empowered
to sanction such divisions and when even upon enquiry, it
is found that the divisions/additional divisions which are
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt sanctioned to the schools are permissible as per the
strength of the students, then there was no necessity to
further issue Government Resolution and thereby stating
that the same is granted on no grant basis from the
academic year 2013-2014.
13. The learned counsel further submits that even an
enquiry committee was appointed by the Government to
submit the detail report with regard to the divisions,
additional divisions sanctioned by the Education Officer;
report was submitted and it was found that additional
divisions are admissible. The learned counsel submits that
even while passing the impugned orders and the Government
Resolution, opportunity of hearing was not given to the
petitioners which is contrary to the Government Resolution
dated 06.02.2012. According to the learned counsel even
exercise was done of an enquiry and it was found that out
of 58 schools to which the additional divisions were
sanctioned, in 38 schools, 147 divisions were sanctioned
and they were found to be having adequate strength of
students for the sanction of additional divisions. The
names of the petitioners, Institutions and the teachers
appointed therein appears in the accompaniment of the
Government Resolution dated 02.12.2014.
14. The learned counsel further submits that many of the
petitioners have been granted approval and acquired right
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt in their favour but the same was not looked into while
issuing the impugned Government Resolution and stating that
the said posts held by the teachers would be considered on
no grant basis. The Right to Education Act no where
contemplates to give grant in aid in a phased manner. This
aspect is also not considered by the authorities while
taking the decision. The appointment of these teachers
cannot be held to be illegal. They are in continuous
employment since 2010. Provisions for grant-in-aid is
available in the budgetary provisions of the State
Government. Even the salaries of some of the petitioners
were drawn from the grant admissible. The decision to
convert the posts held by teachers appointed on the said
posts to no grant basis is bad in law. The learned counsel
further submits that the respondents have failed to
demonstrate as to how and in what manner the decision of
the Education Officer to transfer the divisions of the
closed down schools or divisions which were held to be
inadmissible for continuation for want of students and
attaching the same with the Institutions where there is
adequate strength, requires either prior approval or
concurrence or permission from higher officials. The
Education Officer was within his right to sanction the said
additional divisions as per the Government Resolution dated
12.06.2007 and 06.12.2007. If impugned Government
Resolution is allowed to operate, then these persons who
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt have been appointed will have to wait for further 7 to 8
years to become eligible for grant insptie of the facts
that the posts held by them is having budgetary
provisions, however, the same was not utilized. To that
extent the Government Resolution dated 02.12.2014 is bad in
law.
15. The learned counsel further submits that perusal of
the provisions of the Right to Education Act would reveal
that the staff sanction and determination is governed by
Rules framed under section 25 of the Right to Education
Act. Even Government Resolution dated 20.08.2015 lays down
that it is the Education Officer who is authorized in law
to determine the staff sanction and prior permission of the
State Government is no where contemplated. All the schools
in the State either run by State Government, local self
government or private schools, whether receiving grant in
aid or not are governed by the Right to Education Act. As
such, it does not lie in the mouth of the Government to
state that before the Education Officer takes decision to
attach the closed division to another school, consultation
with the State Government is necessary.
16. The learned counsel further submits that the
provisions of the Right to Education Act makes it
compulsory to make available the facility of education in
all areas within the vicinity of two kms. The impugned
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt Government Resolution does not take into account the said
provisions of the Right to Education Act. The posts held
by these persons appointed pursuant to the order of the
Education Officer sanctioned in these additional divisions
have been found to be admissible as per the fresh roll
verification done. In such a situation, decision to
convert the posts held by the petitioners from admissible
to grant into non grant in aid post is unsustainable and
does not stand to any reason.
17. Mr. Panpatte, the learned counsel relies on the
judgment of the Apex Court in a case of Mohinder Singh Gill
Vs. Chief Election Commissioner, New Delhi, reported in
1978 (1) SCC 405 to contend that what is not stated in the
impugned order cannot be supplemented by affidavit. The
learned counsel further relies on the judgment of the Apex
Court in a case of Pramati Educational & Cultural Trust &
others Vs.Union of India (Writ Petition (C) No.416/2012
with connected petitions, decided on 06.05.2014), so also
the judgment of the Apex Court in case of Ms Mohini Jain
Vs. State of Karnataka reported in AIR 1992 Supreme Court
1858(1) submits that Apex Court has also upheld the said
enactment i.e. Right to Education Act and further observed
that the said Act intends to achieve the constitutional
goal of equality of opportunity through inclusive
elementary education to all. The learned counsel submits
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt that it is the State who would be funding for free
education of the children belonging to weaker sections.
Under section 12(2) of the Right to Education Act, the
school is to be reimbursed for the expenses to the extent
of per child expenditure incurred by it. The provisions are
incorporated in furtherance of the object underlying
Article 21-A of the Constitution to provide free and
compulsory education.
18. Mr. Panpatte, the learned counsel also relies on the
judgment of Division bench of this Court in the case of Ku.
Sunanda dhondiram Wadje Vs. The State of Maharashtra and
others, delivered in Writ Petition No. 5186/2004 dated 27 th
June, 2005 to contend that even assuming that the
Education Officer has committed illegality while granting
approval, the same cannot be corrected at the cost of the
rights of the petitioners being abridged and violated
19. Mr.Chaukidar, the learned counsel holding for Mr.
Solunke, the learned counsel for some of the petitioners,
submits that the petitioners i.e. teachers are appointed by
following due procedure of law and their services are
continued. The learned counsel submits that all divisions
which are allotted were closed down long back and the
teachers working in closed down divisions were already
accommodated in other schools and at that time there were
no surplus teachers. The petitioners were appointed on
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt these sanctioned divisions and as such are eligible for the
grant-in-aid, as these divisions which have been
transferred to existing schools were the closed down
divisions on grant in aid basis. The action of the
Government is against the provisions of the Right to
Education Act. The schools where the petitioners are
working are primary schools and the provisions of the
Right to Education Act are applicable. The petitioners have
completed their three years probation as Shikshan Sevak and
have attained deemed permanency. As per section 8 of the
Right to Education Act, the duties of the appropriate
Government are prescribed and one such duty is to provide
free elementary education to every child up to age of 6 to
14 years and ensure compulsory admission, attendance and
completion of elementary education by every child of the
age of 6 to 14 years. Even it is the bounden duty of the
Government to provide infrastructure including school
building teaching staff and learning equipment. Learned
counsel refers to Section 8 of the Right to Education Act.
In view of that, the learned counsel submits that it is
the responsibility of the State Government to pay salary to
the petitioners as soon as they are granted approval by the
competent authority. Services of the petitioners are
approved and as such, withdrawing the grant-in-aid of the
schools wherein the petitioners are working by issuing
Government Resolution dated 02.12.2014 is illegal and
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt erroneous. According to the learned counsel the Government
is also convinced that considering the strength of the
students available in the schools wherein the petitioners
are working, the respondents State has maintained the
divisions and the petitioners are appointed by following
due process of law. As such, the divisions on which the
petitioners are working are entitled to receive grant-in-
aid. To the extent of withdrawal of grant-in-aid the
Government Resolution dated 02.12.2014 is erroneous and
deserves to be set aside.
20. Mr. Gunale the learned counsel for some of the
petitioners adopts the arguments canvassed by the other
Advocates. The learned counsel relies on the judgment of
the Division Bench of this Court in a case of Ram Avad Vs.
Shivdatta Education Trust, reported in 2007 (6) All M.R.
716 to contend that on completion of probation of three
years, the petitioners would be treated as deemed permanent
teacher.
21. Mrs. Gondhalekar, the learned Addl. Government
Pleader submits that the Education Officer (Primary), while
passing the order in July, 2011, had committed manifest
illegalities and irregularities by directing absorption of
divisions, giving approval to divisions, staffing pattern
and also giving individual/ personal approval on one and
the same date. Learned Addl. G. P. submits that the
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt Government Resolution dated 02.12.2014 and more
particularly, Clause No.2 incorporated therein has not been
complied by any of the School Managements of the
petitioners for the year 2014-2015 2015-2016 even after
filing of the petitions. The said Clause No.2 specifically
lays down the condition to follow the procedure as laid
down in Government Resolution dated 06.02.2012, the same
has not yet been done. According to the learned Addl.G.P.
all the petitioners were not appointed by following due
procedure of law. No permission was obtained, no intimation
was sent to the Department for filling in the posts, the
filling of roster point vacancies were not observed and the
teachers who are appointed have not passed the examination.
Even they cannot be termed as regularly appointed teachers.
According to the learned Addl. G.P., the reliance placed on
the Government Resolutions dated 12.06.2007 and 6.12.2007
by the petitioners is misplaced. Absorption of divisions
from school receiving grant-in-aid to partial grant-in- aid
or non grant-in-aid has to be along with the absorption of
the teachers who were working in the said closed down
divisions. The Education Officer, while passing the order
allowing absorption of such divisions, did not consider
accommodating and absorbing the surplus teachers on those
closed down divisions. According to the learned Addl. G.P.,
fixing the post of teachers, corresponding to the number of
students, the same is to be followed by the Management
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt after introduction of the Right to Education Act. The same
is laid down in the Government Resolution dated 13.12.2013
and 18.06.2010.
22. The learned Additional G.P. submits that Government
Resolution dated 8.11.2000 specifically lays down stage
wise grant-in-aid disbursement after fulfilling
eligibility. All these facets were required to be
considered by the Education Officer while absorbing the
closed down divisions. The learned Addl. G.P. further
submits that in case the Education Officer was to exercise
his right as per the Government Resolution dated 12.06.2007
and 6.12.2007, then the closed down divisions are required
to be absorbed with other schools immediately. In the
present case the same has been done in some matters after
10 years and in some matters after five years, which is
not permissible. The learned Addl. G.P. further submits
that the petitioners cannot claim grant-in-aid as of right.
It depends upon the policy decision of the State and the
State has taken a policy decision about awarding the
grants. The Government Resolution dated 05.11.2011 lays
down parameters about evaluation of grants.
23. Learned Addl. G.P. relies on the judgment of Full
Bench of this Court in a case of St. Ulai High school Vs.
Devendraprasad Jagannath Singh, reported in 2007 (1) Bom.
C.R. 514 to submit that power of appointment is regulated
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt by the Act and the Rules and the matter concerning the
grant of approval is between Management and the Education
Officer and is relevant only for the release of grant by
the State Government to the Management. Appointment and
conditions of service of teachers is governed by the
provisions of the M.E.P.S. Acts and Rules. The same have to
be followed and the primary responsibility of payment of
salary is on the Management.
24. Mr. Bonder, the learned counsel for the Education
Officer (Primary) adopts argument of the learned Addl. G.
P. According to the learned counsel, all the
petitioners /teachers were appointed on non grant in aid
basis. The payment of their salary has to be borne by the
Management.
25. We have considered the submissions canvassed by the
learned counsel for the respective parties.
26. Government Resolution dated 02.12.2014 is the
subject matter of the present writ petitions. The said
Government Resolution dated 02.12.2014 is required to be
issued to clear up the mess created by the Education
Officer, Latur.
27. Various schools in Latur division which were on
grant-in-aid were closed down for more than 5 to 10 years.
In the year 2011-2012, the Education Officer (Primary),
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt Latur allotted those closed down divisions of the closed
down schools or of those schools, where those divisions
had became inadmissible, to the existing schools that too
with retrospective effect. If the order is passed by the
Education Officer (Primary) in February and August, 2011,
the same is allotted for the year 2010-11 and if the order
is passed in March, 2012, the divisions are directed to be
absorbed for the year 2011-12.
28. It is the contention of the petitioners that the
Education Officer (Primary) has the power to absorb said
divisions to the existing schools wherever permissible and
for the said purpose, they rely on the Government
Resolution dated 06.12.2007. If the said Government
Resolution dated 6.12.2007 is perused, then the said
Government Resolution lays down certain modalities to be
observed while absorbing the additional divisions. Clauses
2, 3 and 4 of the said Government Resolution, which is
vernacular language, reads as under:
ß¼2½ iVla[;svHkkoh can >kysyh rqdMh R;kp 'kkGse/;s eatqj dj.ks 'kD; ulY;kl R;kp laLFksP;k vU; 'kkGsr fo|kFkhZ iVla[;k ok<ysyh vlY;kl o foghr fud"k iq.kZ gksr vlY;kl can gks.kkjh rqdMh lek;kstukus eatqj dj.;kr ;koh vls lek;kstu vuqnkfur @va'kr% vuqnkfur o fouk vuqnkfur v'kk xVke/;sp dj.;kr ;kos-

29. Reading Clause 4, it is manifest that if the
division is to be absorbed, then the approved teacher has
to be absorbed along with the division. Without absorbing
the teacher, the division cannot be absorbed. While passing
the order of absorbing the additional divisions of the
closed down schools with the existing schools, the
Education Officer (Primary) did not pass any order with
regard to absorption of the teachers along with the said
divisions. Further, it is not the case that the said
schools had closed down in that year. The said schools were
closed down more than 5 to 10 years back and the closed
down divisions were abruptly allotted to the existing
schools. The said Government Resolution cannot be read
to mean that the Education Officer (Primary), even after a
long slumber of 10 years, would allot the closed down
divisions to the existing schools. The very purpose of
issuing the said Government Resolution dated 06.12.2007 is
that the closed down divisions should be allotted to the
existing schools wherever permissible with a view to absorb
the teachers in that closed down schools alongwith the
divisions. Clause 4 as reproduced above makes this
position amply clear.
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt
30. It appears that those schools to whom additional
divisions were abruptly allotted with retrospective
effect had appointed fresh teachers. The contention of the
petitioners is that at that time, surplus teachers were
not available. Be that as it may, at the first instance,
the Education Officer (Primary) itself ought not have
allotted the closed down divisions of the schools which
were closed down almost 10 years back without making any
enquiry of availability of surplus teachers. Order of
absorption of additional division should accompany the
order of absorption of the teachers of that division and
this is the purport of Clause 4 of the said Government
Resolution dated 06.12.2007. Even Government Resolution
dated 10th June, 2007 lays down the same. The said
Government Resolution applies at a time when because of
lack of students, the devision is on the verge of being
closed and at that time, the Education Officer has to take
steps and not after 5 to 10 years. It would be seen
that even approvals were granted by Education Officer to
the appointments made on the said additional divisions
directed to be absorbed in the existing school with
retrospective effect, immediately. At the first instance,
absorption of additional divisions of the closed down
schools to the existing schools with retrospective effect
itself was illegal. No such order to operate with
retrospective effect could have been passed.
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt
31. The Government, with a view to clear the mess,
appointed the Ghodmode Committee for holding enquiry.
Report was submitted by the Godmode Committee to the
Government. Objections were received regarding conduct of
enquiry and to the report. The said report was not
accepted and fresh enquiry is conducted. Physical
inspection of the school was made in order to find out the
actual physical strength of the students. After receipt of
report of the inspection, Government Resolution dated
02.12.2014 came to be issued. In fact, as a one time
measure, the said Government resolution is issued. The
Government Resolution dated 02.12.2014 has safeguarded the
appointments made of the teachers (of course if made
legally by following proper procedure) on these additional
divisions directed to be absorbed with the existing
schools.
32. Upon enquiry, it is found that out of 58 schools,
147 divisions of 37 schools are eligible for absorption and
out of remaining 20 schools, decision is yet to be taken in
respect of divisions of 14 schools. As the Education
Officer has committed irregularity and illegality while
absorbing these additional divisions, as a one time
measure, Government Resolution dated 02.12.2014 is issued
and these additional divisions have been granted approval
from the year 2013-14, thereby protecting appointment of
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt the teachers made on these additional 147 divisions,
provided appointment is as per rule i.e. satisfying the
roster as approved by the B.C. Cell and proper procedure at
the time of appointment being followed and their
evaluation would be made to bring them on grant in aid
basis subsequently.
33. The petitioners have placed much reliance on the
provisions of the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory
Education Act, 2009 (Right to Education Act) and the
Government Resolution dated 28.08.2015. It is true that by
virtue of 86th Amendment to the Constitution, Article 21-A
is introduced. It provides for free and compulsory
education to all children in the age group of six to
fourteen years as a fundamental right. Consequently, the
Right to Education Act is introduced. It casts an
obligation on the appropriate Government to provide free
and compulsory elementary education to all children
between the age group of six to fourteen years. Section 25
of the Right to Education Act reads as under:
"25. Pupil-Teacher Ratio- (1) Within three years from the date of commencement of this Act, the appropriate Government and the local authority shall ensure that the Pupil-Teacher Ratio, as specified in the Schedule, is maintained in each school.
(2) For the purpose of maintaining the Pupil-
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt Teacher Ratio, under sub-section (1), no teacher posted in a school shall be made to serve in any other school or office or deployed for any non- educational purpose, other than those specified in section 27."
It would be seen that Pupil-Teacher ratio as
specified in the schedule is required to be maintained in
each school. As such, now the number of teachers would not
be dependent upon the number of divisions but the number of
teachers would be dependent upon the strength of student.
34. Under the Right to Education Act, "school" is
defined under section 2(n), the same reads as under
"2(n)"School" means any recognised school imparting elementary education and includes
(i)a school established, owned or controlled by the appropriate Government or a local authority;
(ii) an aided school receiving aid or grants to meet whole or part of its expenses from the appropriate Government or the local authority;
(iii) a school belonging to specified category; and
(iv) an unaided school not receiving any kind of aid or grants to meet its expenses from the appropriate Government or the local authority;"
The school is categorized into schools owned or
controlled by the appropriate Government or local
authority; an aided school receiving aid or grants to meet
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt the whole or part of its expenses from the appropriate
Government or the local authority; the school belonging to
specified category and an unaided school not receiving any
kind of aid or grants to meet its expenses. Sections 11
and 12 of the said Act lays down a mandate upon all the
schools run by the Government or its local authority to
provide free and compulsory education to all children
admitted therein. It further lays down that those schools
specified in sub clause (ii) of clause (n) of section 2
shall provide free and compulsory elementary education to
such proportion of children admitted therein as its annual
recurring aid or grants so received, bears to its annual
recurring expenses, subject to a minimum of 25 %. Those
schools specified in clauses (iii) and (iv) of clause (n)
of section 2 shall admit in Class at least 25% of the
strength of that class, the children belonging to weaker
section and disadvantaged group in neighbourhood and
provide free and compulsory elementary education to such
students and expenses shall be reimbursed by the State.
35. Much emphasis was laid by the learned counsel for the
petitioners on the fact that though the impugned
Government Resolution refers to the provisions of the
Right to Education Act, still it has considered the number
of additional divisions and not the strength of students,
while regularizing the additional divisions. As stated
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt above, the Government Resolution dated 02.12.2014 is a
result of the mess created by the Education Officer and to
streamline the same, the said Government Resolution is
issued. In fact it was to support the teachers who were
appointed on such additional divisions which were directed
to be absorbed by the Education Officer erroneously. Now,
as per the Act of 2009, teacher-pupil ratio will have to
be maintained.
36. The major objection of the petitioners is that
though the divisions of the closed down schools which were
directed to be absorbed were on grant in aid, under the
impugned resolution, the same is to be considered on non
grant in aid from the academic year 2013-14. The Right to
Education Act does not deal with providing grant in a
particular manner nor there is any Government Resolution
which states that if an additional division is granted or
additional post is created, the same would be directly on
grant-in-aid basis. It is not necessary that every school
and or every division has to be on grant-in-aid basis.
Those schools which do not receive complete aid from the
appropriate Government, they are directed to provide free
and compulsory education to 25% of the students and their
expenses is to be made by the Government.
37. The Apex Court, in case of Pramati Educational &
Cultural Trust & ors., referred supra, has observed as
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt under:
"44. When we examine the 2009 Act, we find that udner Section 12(1)(c) read with Section 2(n) (iv) of the Act, an unaided school not receiving any kind of aid or grants to meet its expenses from the appropriate Government or the local authority is required to admit in class I, to the extent of at least twenty-five percent of the strength of that class, children belonging to weaker section and disadvantaged group in the neighbourhood and provide free and compulsory elementary education till its completion. We further find that under Section 12 (2) of the 2009 Act such a school shall be reimbursed expenditure so incurred by it to the extent of per-child expenditure incurred by the State, or the actual amount charged from the child, whichever is less, in such manner as may be prescribed. Thus ultimately it is is the State which is funding the expenses of free and compulsory education of the children belonging to weaker sections and several groups in the neighbourhood, which are admitted to a private unaided school. These provisions of the 2009 Act, in our view, are for the purpose of providing free and compulsory education to childrne between the age group of 6 to 14 years and are consistent with the right under Article 19(1)(g) of the Constitution, as interpreted by this Court in T.M.A. Pai foundation (Supra) and are meant to achieve the constitutional goals of equality of opportunity in elementary education to children of weaker sections and disadvantaged groups in our society. We, therefore, do not find any merit in the submissions made on behalf of the non-
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt minority private schools that Article 21-A of the Constitution and the 2009 Act violate their right under Article 19(1)()g) of the Constitution. "
38. Grant in aid is neither fundamental right nor
statutory right of educational institutions. The Division
Bench of this Court, in case of Keraleeya Samajam and
others Vs. State of Maharashtra and others, reported in
2004(2) Mh.L.J. 171, has held that grant-in-aid cannot be
claimed as of right. There is no legal or constitutional
right insofar as grant-in-aid is concerned.
39. We do not find any defined policy laid down by the
Government with regard to the sanction of additional posts
and for giving grant to them. We expect the State
Government to evolve a defined policy, keeping in view the
provisions of Section 12 of the Right to Education Act,
thereby laying down the grant of additional posts, powers
to grant additional posts so also eligibility for grant-in-
aid and the period of entitlement of grant-in-aid for
additional posts created.
40. Under the impugned Government Resolution, the
Government has held that those posts which would be
admissible would be on non grant-in-aid from the year 2013-
14. These posts are admissible for the academic year in
which the order was passed by the Education Officer i.e.
if the order was passed in February, July or August,
wp762-15 & connected wps.odt 2011, from the year 2011-12, if order was passed in 2012,
from the year 2012-2013, then it can consider providing
approval from the said years on non grant in aid instead of
the year 2013-14. Reliance placed on the Government
Resolutions dated 12.06.2007 and 6.12.2007 by the
petitioners would not enure to the benefit of the
petitioners.
41. The State Government shall reconsider whether
permission on non grant basis would be granted to these
divisions/posts from the year, the order was passed of
absorbing said divisions i.e. if the order was passed in
February and August, 2011, from the year 2011-12 and if the
order of absorption was passed in June, July, 2012, from
the year 2012-13. The State shall also take final
decision in respect of those 14 schools out of 21 in
respect of which the decision is not yet taken as is stated
in the impugned Government Resolution. The same would be
done expeditiously, preferably within four months. Writ
petitions accordingly disposed of. No costs.
