A copy has been made available by the counsel for the Bihar Sanskrit Shiksha Board has been perused. With consent of parties the writ petition has been heard for disposal at this stage. Petitioner was appointed as Assistant Teacher in Shri Singheshwar Priya Shakuntala Sanskrit Madhyamik Vidyalaya, Karma, Block Alamnagar, District Madhepura. In the year 1996, undisputedly, against sanctioned vacant post appointment having been made for approval of services of the petitioner. The Secretary of the Managing Committee of the school which made the appointment wrote a detail letter dated 10.05.1996 (Annexure-1) to the Bihar Sanskrit Shiksha Board for grant of approval and, consequently, for payment. Petitioner also represented to the Bihar Sanskrit Shiksha Board for an early decision in this regard, but as usual nothing happened. The writ petition having been filed on 26.04.2005, the authorities of the Bihar Sanskrit Shiksha Board woke up and by Annexure-A to the counter affidavit dated 25.10.2006, showing that the request of approval was received only on 01.03.2004, approval was granted for the recruitment and services of the petitioner. A string - 2 - as usual was attached that the approval was temporary whereas the provision for granting temporary approval for service or why it was so granted is not disclosed. It is obviously to force petitioner to approach the Bihar Sanskrit Shiksha Board again. This cannot be permitted. Once petitioner was found to be granted approval it would be deemed that it is a permanent approval. In such circumstances, this Court declares that approval so granted provisionally would be deemed to be permanent approval granted and, consequently, the Bihar Sanskrit Shiksha Board would be liable to make arrangement for payment of full salary and remuneration of the petitioner from the time she was appointed. It shall be the responsibility of the Chairman of the Bihar Sanskrit Shiksha Board to ensure that full payment is to be made to the petitioner within three months from the date of production of a copy of this order before the Secretary of the Bihar Sanskrit Shiksha Board. With these observations and directions, this writ application is disposed of. Trivedi/ (Navaniti Prasad Singh, J.)
