========================
W.P.(C) No.2150 of 2022
------------------------------------------------
Dated this the 21st day of January, 2022
JUDGMENT
Petitioner was appointed as a Lower Primary School Assistant
from 28.7.2021 against a vacancy arising allegedly from the
promotion of Smt.Kavitha M, who was temporarily promoted as
Headmistress of the School from 01.04.2021. Petitioner claims to be
a fully qualified cadidate for appoitment as LPSA. However, approval
to her appointment was declined by the Statutory authorities, against
which a revision petition has been preferred by the petitioner before
the 1st respondent under Rule 92 of Chapter IXV of the Kerala
Education Rules.
2. The limited relief sought for by the petitioner, during the
course of argument, was for a direction to dispose of the revision
petition pending before the Government.
3. Having heard Sri.M.Sajjad, learned Counsel for the
petitioner as well as Smt.Nisha Bose, learned Senior Government
Pleader, I am of the view that the revision petition can be disposed of
within a time bound manner.
WP(C) NO. 2150 OF 2022
4. Accordingly, I direct the 1st respondent to consider and
pass appropriate orders on Ext.P9, revision petition dated
20.12.2021, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within a period
of four months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment,
after affording an opportunity of hearing to the petitioner.
The writ petition is disposed of accordingly.
