JUDGMENT
The above writ petition is filed with following prayers:
(i) call for the records relating to Exhibits P-5 and P-6 and set aside the originals of the same by the issue of a writ of certiorari or other appropriate writ or order.
(ii) issue a writ of mandamus or other appropriate writ, order or direction commanding the 5th Respondent to refrain from acting as Manager of the School by the 7 th Respondent, pending disposal of the writ Petition.
(iii) issue a writ of mandamus or other appropriate writ order or direction commanding the 1st Respondent to consider and pass appropriate orders upon Exhibit P-7 after affording an opportunity of being heard to the Petitioner within a time limit.
iv) dispense with filing of English translation of vernacular documents produced along with the Writ Petition.
(v) pass such other order or direction which this Hon'ble Court may deem fit and proper to grant in the circumstances of the case.
W.P.(C) NO.11627 OF 2023
2. In connection with the management dispute, the
petitioner submitted Ext.P7 before the 1 st respondent. When this
writ petition came up for consideration, the counsel for the
petitioner submitted that the petitioner will be satisfied if a
direction is issued to the 1st respondent to consider Ext.P7 within
a time limit.
3. Heard the learned Government Pleader also.
4. The way in which the writ petition is going to be
disposed of no notice is necessary to the 6 th respondent. If the 6th
respondent is aggrieved by any of the directions issued by this
Court, the 6th respondent is free to file a review petition.
5. Since the limited prayer of the petitioner is only for
consideration of Ext.P7 by the 1st respondent. I think the writ
petition can be allowed on condition that the 1 st respondent will
hear the petitioner and the 6 th respondent before passing final
orders.
Therefore, this writ petition is disposed of in the following
directions:
1. The 1st respondent is directed to consider and pass appropriate orders in Ext.P7, as expeditiously
W.P.(C) NO.11627 OF 2023
as possible, at any rate, within four months from the date of receipt a certified copy of this judgment.
2. Before passing final orders, the 1 st respondent will give an opportunity of hearing to the petitioner and the 6th respondent.
3. If the 1st respondent is of the opinion that the matter is to be considered by the 2nd respondent, the 1st respondent can forward Ext.P7 to the 2 nd respondent in accordance with law.
4. The petitioner will produce a certified copy of this judgment along with a copy of this writ petition before the 1st respondent for compliance.
