RAMACHANDRAN NAIR, J. --------------------------------------- W.P.(C) No.21627 OF 2011 --------------------------------------- Dated this the 9th day of August, 2011. J U D G M E N T The petitioner, who is working as full time Sanskrit Teacher in the school managed by the 4th respondent, is aggrieved by the delay in disposal of Ext.P9 revision petition pending before the Director of Public Instruction. The petitioner has thereafter filed a revision petition before the Government as per Ext.P10. 2. It is a case where the petitioner contends that the full time post of Sanskrit Teacher was introduced in the school from the year 1994-95 onwards by way of Group C diversion. It is pointed out that such post cannot be converted as part time. This is a matter now pending consideration before the Director of Public Instruction. 3. Learned Government Pleader submitted that since the revision petition before the Director of Public Instruction is pending, the revision petition filed before the Government may not be maintainable. W.P.(C) No.21627/2011 2 There will be a direction to the Director of Public Instruction to consider and pass orders on Ext.P9 revision petition, after hearing the petitioner and the Manager, within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The petitioner will forward a copy of this judgment along with a copy of the writ petition for compliance. This writ petition is disposed of as above. T.R. RAMACHANDRAN NAIR JUDGE smp
