THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON
01.10.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
WP(C) NO. 15958 OF 2021 2
JUDGMENT
The petitioner states that while she was working as UPSA in the MMET
HS, Melmuri, an aided school under the management of the 3rd respondent,
she was promoted and appointed on 01.06.2009 as an HST in a Leave Without
Allowance Vacancy. She contends that she is entitled to the approval of her
service as HST from 01.06.2009 to 16.11.2009. Raising her contentions, the
petitioner is stated to have preferred Exhibit-P7 revision petition before the 1st
respondent. It is in the above backdrop that the petitioner is before this Court
seeking directions:
2. Sri.Augustine Joseph, the learned counsel appearing for the
petitioner submitted that the only request is for a direction to the 1st
respondent to expeditiously consider and take a decision on Ext.P7.
3. Heard the learned Government Pleader as well.
4. After having carefully evaluated the contentions raised in this writ
petition, the submissions made across the Bar and the facts and circumstances,
I am of the view that this writ petition can be disposed of by issuing the
following directions:
a) There will be a direction to the 1st respondent to take up,
consider and pass appropriate orders on Ext.P7, as per
procedure and in strict adherence to the provisions of
law. An opportunity of being heard, either physically or
virtually, shall be afforded to the petitioner or her
authorised representative, the Manager as well as
affected parties, if any.
b) Orders, as directed above, shall be passed expeditiously, in
any event, within a period of three months from the date
of production of a copy of this judgment.
c) It would be open to the petitioner to produce a copy of the
writ petition along with the judgment before the
concerned respondent for further action.
This writ petition is disposed of.
