1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE WRIT PETITION NO.1338 OF 2002 Shri Jagdish B. Shintre. ...Petitioner. Vs. The State of Maharashtra & Ors. ...Respondents. .... Mr. S.S. Pakale for the Petitioner. Mrs.M. P. Thakur, AGP for Respondent Nos.1 to 3. Mr.D. R. More for Respondent Nos.4 and 5. ..... CORAM : F.I. REBELLO, J. AND DR.D.Y.CHANDRACHUD, J. January 9, 2006. P.C. It is the case of the Petitioner that the qualification obtained by him from the Hindi Shikshak Training College, managed by the Karnataka Mahila Hindi Seva Samiti, is equivalent to B.Ed. In the reply filed on behalf of the Respondent-State, it is pointed out that the qualification possessed by the Petitioner is not equivalent to B.Ed. Degree of the State of Maharashtra. The Learned Counsel has taken us through the Government Resolution issued by the State of Maharashtra. On perusing the said G.R., it is clear that the State of Maharashtra has recognised some courses of the Karnataka Mahila Hindi Seva Samiti, Bangalore. 2 That however, does not include the course passed by the Petitioner. Hence, the stand of the Respondents that the Petitioner does not possess B.Ed. qualification is right. The Petitioner then contended that his services have been terminated as he had not completed B.Ed. For that action the Petitioner has a remedy to file an appeal before the School Tribunal. Considering the above, it is not a fit case to intervene on that count. It would be open to the Petitioner to prefer an appeal if so advised and seek condonation of delay considering that the Petition was pending before this Court since 2002. The Tribunal should take note of the same. With the above observations, the petition stands disposed of. No order as to costs. ( F.I. Rebello, J.) (Dr. D.Y. Chandrachud, J.)
