CWP-T-2894 of 2008. 14.07.2009 Present: Mr. B.C. Negi, Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. R.K. Sharma, Senior Additional Advocate General, for the respondents. The petitioner was appointed as Para Teacher vide letter dated 31st March, 2004. It is evident from the plain reading of the policy that the appointment of the Para Teacher was for one academic session, which was extendable for three years. In these circumstances, the petitioner had completed the maximum period up to 31st December, 2007. However, the matter is required to be seen from another angle. The petitioner has absented from duty without the leave sanctioned by the competent authority. A bare perusal of Sub-clause (g) of Clause 7 of the policy makes it clear that unauthorized absence from the School without the approval of the Head of the Institution shall automatically lead to the termination of the services. In the present case, the leave by the petitioner though applied, was never sanctioned by the competent authotiry. In these circumstances, his absence has to be treated as unauthorized and his appointment has automatically come to an end as per Sub Clause (g) of Clause-7 of the policy. Accordingly, there is no merit in the petition and the same is dismissed. No costs. (Rajiv Sharma), Judge. July 14, 2009. Bhupender
