Learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that the person appointed has been held to be a palpably illegal appointee and interloper by the Collector in his order dated 14.12.2009. There was thus in fact no appointment at all in the eye of law. The petitioner was the next eligible candidate to be appointed. The Collector has not doubted eligibility of the petitioner. The petitioner pursued the matter within a period of one year from the date of appointment of respondent no. 7 and the normal life of a panel is one year, the expiry of the panel during litigation cannot be a ground to un-suit the petitioner. Counsel for the State submits that these are matters to be considered by the Commissioner against the order of the appellate authority in an appeal. If the petitioner files such an appeal before the Commissioner within 30 days from today, let the same be decided after hearing all concerned in accordance with law and disposed by a reasoned and speaking order within a period of two months from its presentation. The writ application stands disposed. Snkumar/- (Navin Sinha,J.)
