Ramachandran Nair, J. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - W.P.(C) No. 20507 of 2009-G - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dated this the 22nd day of July, 2009. JUDGMENT The petitioner was appointed as a part time Sanskrit Teacher which is evidenced by Ext.P1. It is seen from Ext.P2 staff fixation order dated 10.7.1981 that a full time post of Sanskrit teacher existed in the school by diversion of periods from Group 'C' subjects. At that point of time one Smt,.P. Lalitha held the post of Sanskrit teacher. Ext.P2(a) is the staff fixation order for the year 2007-2008. By the said order, the post was reduced as a part time one. The petitioner is relying upon Ext.P3 by which the Government has allowed diversion in respect of a part time post of Sanskrit teacher. 2. Ext.P4 revision petition is now pending before the Government. The petitioner seeks for a direction to the Government to dispose of Ext.P4 within a time frame. Therefore, there will be a direction to the first respondent to dispose of Ext.P4 revision petition within a period of four months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment, after hearing the petitioner and the Manager. The writ petition is disposed of as above. (T.R. Ramachandran Nair, Judge.) kav/
