WP(C) 9268/2004 BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE B.K. SHARMA The petitioners who were appointed purely on temporary basis by the sch ool managing committee have invoked the writ jurisdiction of this Court praying for interference with the dispensation of their services. I have heard Mr. S.K. Singha, learned counsel for the petitioners as wel l as Mr. U.K. Goswami, learned Standing counsel, Education Department. In the co unter affidavit filed by the respondent No. 5, it has been stated that the insti tution is purely at the venture stage and only financial assistance that the ins titution had received is by way of non-recurring grants. It has been stated that the institution is not under deep and pervasive control of the Govt. If the ins titution is at the venture stage without any control of the Govt. in the matter of appointment and termination, the petitioner cannot invoke the writ jurisdicti on of this Court as the school managing committee is not the authority within t he meaning of Article 12 of the Constitution of India. In view of the above, the writ petition is not maintainable and accordin gly, it is dismissed. However, dismissal of the writ petition would not preclude the petitioners from agitating their grievance by taking recourse to any other remedy available to them.
