THIS REVIEW PETITION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON
13.04.2023, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
RP NO. 407 OF 2023
2
ORDER
This Review Petition is filed seeking to review the judgment dated
24.11.2022 in W.P.(C.) No. 31453/2022.
2. In the Review Petition, it is stated that at the time of disposal of the
writ petition, the learned Government Pleader was not able to point out that
G.O.(P.) No. 3/2019/G.Edn. dated 28.02.2019, produced as Ext. P5 in the writ
petition is an SRO that was issued for amending the Kerala Education Rules. It
is contended that the petitioner had not mounted any challenge against the
same. It is also submitted that Ext. P6 is a Circular issued pursuant to Ext.P5.
However, inadvertently, this Court, while allowing the writ petition, had quashed
Exts. P5 and P6, along with Ext. P2.
3. Having considered the submissions, I am of the opinion that due to
a typographical error in the relief portion, Exts.P5 and P6 were also quashed in
addition to Ext.P2. This is clearly an error apparent on the face of the record.
4. Resultantly, this Review Petition will stand allowed. The judgment
dated 24.11.2022 in W.P.(C) No. 31453/2022 will stand reviewed. The operative
portion shall be read as under:
"Resultantly, Ext.P2 will stand quashed. There will be a direction to the 4th respondent to reconsider the matter in the light of the law RP NO. 407 OF 2023
laid down in Exts.P7 and P8 and grant approval to the appointment of the petitioner as a Full-Time Office Attendant on a regular pay basis with effect from 1.8.2019, with all consequential benefits. Orders shall be passed expeditiously, in any event, within eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment."
As the judgment has been reviewed, the directions shall be complied with,
within eight weeks from today.
