ON 05.11.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE
FOLLOWING:
 WPC NO.24280 OF 2021
                                      3




                               JUDGMENT

Dated this the 05th day of November, 2021

The petitioner was appointed as Upper Primary

School Assistant with effect from 22.08.2008, against

an anticipated additional post. The approval was

rejected by the AEO. An appeal was filed, which was

also dismissed. In the meanwhile, GO No.10/10 was

notified. The Manager has executed a bond

undertaking the condition in terms of the above

Government Order. However, the petitioner was

approved on daily wages from 22.08.2008 to

31.03.2009 and on regular basis from 01.06.2009.

Claiming that he is entitled for approval on regular

basis, with effect from 22.08.2008, the petitioner has

submitted Ext.P6 revision. The grievance of the

petitioner is that the above revision has not been

disposed of inspite of considerable delay.

2. After having heard the learned Counsel for

the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader WPC NO.24280 OF 2021

for respondents 1 to 4, I am inclined to dispose of the

writ petition itself by directing the first respondent to

take up, consider and dispose of Ext.P6 revision on

merits, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate,

within a period of three months, from the date of

receipt of a copy of this judgment, after giving a

reasonable opportunity of being heard to the

petitioner and the fifth respondent.

The writ petition is disposed of accordingly.
