P.C. 1] We have gone through the Judgment and Order passed by the Single Judge which is impugned in this Appeal. 2 2] The learned Single Judge has taken into consideration not only the criteria on the basis of which the Petitioners are appointed as Shikshan Sevaks in accordance with rules but also observed that the Deputy Director of Education who initially had granted approval could not have cancelled the same without giving any notice or hearing to the said teachers or Management. 3] It appears that the only ground on which the Deputy Director of Education has passed the impugned Order rejecting the approval of the Petitioners was that there is backlog of reservation with the Management, of ST Category and therefore he cancelled the approval of Petitioners. This issue has already been dealt by the Division Bench of this Court in couple of Petitions and the learned Single Judge has observed it in paragraph 10 of the impugned Order. None of the decision has been challenged by the State and therefore the decision of the learned Single Judge setting aside the decision of refusal of the grant of approval to the said post of teachers does not suffer from any error or illegality. We, therefore, do not find any merits in the Appeals. All Appeals are dismissed accordingly. (ACTING CHIEF JUSTICE) (S.C. DHARMADHIKARI,J) 3
