The present writ petition has been filed for the following prayers:

"(i) call for the records relating to Exhibits P-4, P-13 and P-

15 and set aside the originals of the same to the extent it failed to sanction two more divisions by following 1:30 PTR. by the issue of a writ of certiorari or other appropriate writ or order.

(ii) call for the records relating to Exhibits P-6 and P-6(a), and set aside the original of the same to the extent it linked the approval of appointment of 6th and 7th Respondents with G.O.(P) No.29/2016/G.Edn dated 29.01.2016 and G.O.(P) No.4/2021/G.Edn dated 06.02.2021 by the issue of a writ of certiorari or other appropriate writ or order.

(iii) issue a writ of mandamus or other appropriate writ order or direction directing the Respondents to disburse the monetary benefits following their approval treating that they are not approved against an additional vacancies occurred from 2016-17 academic year.

(iv)issue a writ of mandamus or other appropriate writ order or iv) direction directing the 5th Respondent to sanction 2 more post of LPSA in the School from the academic year 2015-16 following 1:30 PTR.

2025:KER:34869

WP(C) NO. 7402 OF 2023

(v) declare that Petitioner School is entitled to get two more divisions during the academic year 2015-16 by following 1:30 PTR.

(vi) declare that 6th and 7th Respondents were appointed against the vacancies available prior to 2016 -17 academic year and hence the Manager is not bound to appoint any protected teacher on that account.

(vii) pass such other order or direction which this Hon'ble Court may deem fit and proper to grant in the circumstances of the case."

We are in the academic session 2025-26. For the staff pattern

for the academic session 2015-16, only an academic exercise can be

undertaken and this Court does not want to indulge in an academic

exercise. Thus, the writ petition is dismissed as having been rendered

infructuous.
