The matter relates to the rejection of approval of appointment of the petitioner as HSA(Hindi). The petitioner is a claimant under Rule 43 of Chapter XIV-A KER as she has got continuous service as Lower Grade Hindi Teacher from 2.6.2003 onwards under different appointment orders which have been produced as Exhibits P1 to P6. When a regular vacancy arose on 1.6.2010, the petitioner was appointed as per Exhibit P7. Exhibit P8 is the copy of the rejection order of the District Educational Officer of its approval, against which the Manager filed an appeal before the Deputy Director of Education. He has passed Exhibit P10 order confirming the order, Exhibit P8. 3. The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the Deputy Director of Education has relied upon Exhibit P7 W.P.(C)No.26453/11 -2- Government Order while disposing of the appeal and therefore the proper remedy of the petitioner is to approach the Government and accordingly a revision petition has been filed. 4. The learned Government Pleader submitted that the revision petition is filed only on 29.9.2011 and sufficient time will be required to take a decision in the matter. 5. There will be a direction to the Government to take a decision on Exhibit P11 revision petition after hearing the petitioner and the Manager within a period of five months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The petitioner will forward a copy of the Writ Petition along with a copy of this judgment to the Government for compliance. The Writ Petition is disposed of as above.
