                                            JUDGMENT

The writ petition is filed seeking the following reliefs:

(i) call for the records relating to Exhibits P - (a) P - (b) P - 2(a) P-2(b), P-3(a), P-3(b),

P - 4(a) P - 4(b) P-5(a), P - 5(b) P-6(a), P-6(b), P - 7(a) P - 7(b) P-8(a), P-8(b), P-9(a)

and P-9(b) and set aside the originals of the same by the issue of a writ of certiorari or

appropriate writ or order.

(ii) issue a writ of mandamus or other appropriate writ, order or direction commanding

the Respondents to grant approval to Exhibits P-1,P-2,P-3, P-4, P-5, P-6, P-7, P-8, and

P-9 and disburse the attendant benefits forthwith.

iii) issue a writ of mandamus or other appropriate writ, order or direction commanding

the 2nd Respondent to take a decision on Exhibit P-1 (c), P-2 (c), P-3 (c), P-4 (c), P-5

(c), P-6 (c), P-7 (c),P-8 (c) and P-9 (c), adverting to Exhibits P-10 and P-11 and with

notice to the Petitioners in a time bound manner.

2. Sri.M.Sajjad, the learned counsel for the petitioners, submitted that the

petitioners have been appointed in the DIS GHSS, Kannur City, as primary school

teachers as against regular posts. According to the learned counsel, the approval of

their appointment was declined by the educational authorities. Challenging the

same, revision petitions have been preferred before the 2nd respondent, and the

same is pending. The learned counsel requests that directions be issued to the 2nd

respondent to take a decision on Exhibits P1(c), P2(c), P3(c), P4(c), P5(c), P6(c),

WP(C) NO. 42659 OF 2022

P7(c), P8(c) and P9(c), adverting to Exhibits P10 and P11 and with notice to the

petitioners in a time bound manner.

3. I have heard the learned Government Pleader. In view of the limited

nature of the relief sought, no prejudice would be caused to the 5 th respondent if

notice is dispensed with.

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 at the admission stage

itself by issuing the following directions:

a) There will be a direction to the 2nd respondent to take up, consider

and pass appropriate orders on Exhibit P1(c), P2(c), P3(c), P4(c),

P5(c), P6(c), P7(c), P8(c) and P-9(c), adverting to Exhibits P10 and

P11, after affording an opportunity of being heard, either physically

or virtually, to the petitioners herein or their authorized

representatives and the 5th respondent.

b) Orders, as directed above, shall be passed expeditiously, in any

event, within three months from the date of production of a copy of

this judgment.

WP(C) NO. 42659 OF 2022

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.
