1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY NAGPUR BENCH, NAGPUR. WRIT PETITION NO. 1610 OF 2009 (Dhanraj Prabhakarrao Shelke .v. The State of Maharashtra and others) Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram appearances, Court's orders or directions Court's or Judge's Orders and Registrar's orders. Shri Uday Dastane, Advocate for the petitioner. Smt. M.H. Deshmukh, AGP for the respondent Nos.1 and 2. Shri J.B. Kasat, Advocate for the respondent No.3. Shri Y.B. Kaslikar, Advocate for the respondent Nos.4 and 5. CORAM : SMT. VASANTI A. NAIK AND PRASANNA B. VARALE, JJ. 25TH JULY, 2011. Heard. The petitioner had no legal right to seek a direction to the respondent Nos.3 and 4 for appointment of the petitioner on the post of Hostel Superintendent and grant of approval to the petitioner's appointment on the post of Hostel Superintendent as the petitioner was merely working as Arts Teacher in the respondent No.4-institution when he was declared surplus. Nothing has been pointed out on behalf of the petitioner to show that the petitioner has a right to be appointed on the post of Hostel Superintendent, which is a higher post, only because he was declared surplus as an Arts Teacher. The petition is devoid of merits and is, therefore, dismissed with no order as to costs. JUDGE JUDGE *rrg.
