CW 12182/09 [1] IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JAIPUR BENCH S.B. Civil Writ Petition No.12182/09 Prem Narayan Sharma Versus State & Ors. DATE OF ORDER : 13/10/2009 HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE AJAY RASTOGI Mr. Vijay Pathak, for petitioner *** Petitioner is working as Senior Teacher and his grievance is that casual leave granted to him from 9th July, 2005 to 20th July, 2005 and so also from 21st July, 2005 to 23rd December, 2005, has been arbitrarily rejected and the matter has been sent to the Director of Education for necessary orders vide order dt.6th April, 2009 [Ann.22]. The District Education Officer in its letter observed that the Director is the competent authority in sanctioning casual leave and he may submit separate application in this regard to the competent authority. No adverse order has been passed even by him in its communication dt.6th April, 2009 [Ann.22]. However, the petitioner after serving legal notice, approached this court by filing instant petition. CW 12182/09 [2] This Court fails to understand that what is the prejudice being caused to him so far and if his leave has not been sanctioned or matter is to be considered by the Director, Education being the authority competent in sanctioning leave which has been prayed for by him, it is expected from the petitioner to approach the competent authority. In opinion of this court, this is a frivolous petition and the same is, accordingly, dismissed. [AJAY RASTOGI], J. FRBOHRA12182CW09 13-10.doc
