The learned Counsel appearing for the Petitioner states that the Petitioner has joined the post of Head Master at Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Vidyalaya, Khar (West), Mumbai pursuant to the order issued by the Management dated 26th June, 2007 and that the Petitioner is presently working in that post. The limited grievance made by the Petitioner is that though he is working in the post of Head Master at Khar School, the Education Officer is not releasing his salary. 2 2. In our opinion, as the Petitioner is working at Khar School pursuant to the order of the Management and as the Petitioner is in service of the Management, duty to make prompt monthly payment of salary to the Petitioner is of the Management. Petition is, therefore, disposed of with a direction to Respondent Nos. 2 and 3 to make monthly payment of salary to the Petitioner regularly.
