(Writ Petition under Articie 226/227 of the Constitution of india) SB: Hon'bie Mr. SatSsh K. Agnihotri, J. Present' Shri B..D. Guru, coun^e! for the petjtioners Shri Ajay Dwivedi, Pane! La^/yer for the State. Shri Utkarsha Verma, counsei for the inten/ener. ORAL ORDER (Passed on 29th January, 2WS} The petitioners were appointed as Shiksha Karml Grade !li in various sohoois under Janpad Panchayat Maikharoda cn 117-7-1998 (Annexure P/1) and thereafter, they joined their sen/lces and started working. Aii of a sudden, the sen/ices of the petitioners were terminated on the ground that the selection itseif has been cancaiied by order dated 12-10-1998 (Annexure P/5) on account of severai irreguiarities aliegediy found in the seiection process. This Court on 2-11-1998 ordered to maintain status quo, tili the next date of hearing. 2) Learned counsei appearing for the petitioner submits that on the strength of the order dated 2-11 -1998 passed by this Court, the petitioners are stili v^orking as Shiksha Karmi Gradee-iil in their respective schools. 'IH6, -1 - 3) Learned counsei appearing for the respondents/State does not dispute the factuai positlon that the petitioners nave been worklng since 2-11-1998 till today. The soie contention of the learned counse! appearing for tne petitioners is that the order of canceiiation was passed without affording an opportunity of hearing to the petitioners. The fact remains that the petittoners have been atiov^ed to work for a !ong period almost about ten years. At thls stage, quashing their appointment after examlning whether show cause notice vy'as necessary or not, is not desirabie in the faots of the case. However as suibmitted by learned counsei appearing for the respondents/authorities, if necessary, separate show cause notice may be issued to the petitioner concerned before taking any action, keeping in mind tnat the petitioners have Vv/orked as Shiksh Karmi Grade III almost for about ten years on the strength of the Interim order passed by this Court. Thus, it is not necessary to examine the case on merit. The order of canceliation stands auashed. However, the respondents/authorities are at iiberty to take appropriate steps, If necessary, against Individuai petitioners after affording proper opportuhity of hearing to the petitjoners. 4) The petition stands disposerd of accordingly.| Sd/- Satish K.
