THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION
ON 06.10.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE
FOLLOWING:
WP(C) NO. 21270 OF 2021 2
JUDGMENT
The petitioner states that she was appointed as Upper Primary School
Assistant at Amritha Sanskrit Higher Secondary School, Paripally, an aided
school managed by the 5th respondent on 17.07.2008. The approval was
granted only with effect from 1.6.2011. Being aggrieved by the non-
approval of the appointment for the period from 17.7.2008 to 31.5.2011,
the petitioner has preferred Ext.P14 representation before the Government.
Apprehensive of the delay in consideration of the representation, the
petitioner is before this Court seeking directions.
2. Sri. M.Sajjad, the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner
submitted that the limited request of the petitioner is for issuance of
directions to the 1st respondent to consider Ext.P14 representation in an
expeditious manner with due notice.
3. I have heard Smt.Nisha Bose, the learned Senior Government
Pleader.
4. In view of the limited nature of the relief sought for, notice to
the 5th respondent is dispensed with.
5. 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 at
the admission stage itself 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.P14, as per
procedure and in adherence to the provisions of law, after
affording an opportunity of being heard, either physically or
virtually, to the petitioner herein or her authorised
representative and the 5th respondent.
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) If all other conditions are satisfied, it would be open to the 1st
respondent to deem that the Manager had executed the bond
as stipulated in G.O.(P) No.10/10/G.Edn. dated 12.1.2010.
d) 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.
