Mr. Tapan Singh, Advocate holding brief of Mr. Lok Pal Singh, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. N.P. Sah, Standing Counsel for the State of Uttarakhand. Hon’ble Sudhanshu Dhulia, J. 1. Heard Mr. Tapan Singh, Advocate holding brief of Mr. Lok Pal Singh, Advocate for the petitioner and Mr. N.P. Sah, Standing Counsel for the State of Uttarakhand. 2. This writ petition has been filed by the petitioner with a prayer that the respondents be directed to give him appointment in the Education Department. The claim of the petitioner is based on the fact that he donated his land for Primary School and since he has donated the land, he is liable to be given appointment in the Education Department. 3. A counter affidavit has been filed by the State. In the counter affidavit, the State Government has denied that there is any Government Order, on the basis of which such a claim can be made by the petitioner. The Government Order referred to by the petitioner is a letter dated 19.1.2006, which is Annexure -4 to the Writ Petition. This letter only seeks information as to who are those persons, who have donated their land for construction of a School. 4. Learned counsel for the petitioner has not been able to place before this Court any documents nor cited any law, which may substantiate his claim for appointment in 2 the Education Department, on the basis it is being claimed. 5. The Writ Petition is, therefore, absolutely without merit and is liable to be dismissed. The same is accordingly dismissed. No order as to costs. (Sudhanshu Dhulia, J.) 14.5.2010 Rathour
