Acting thereupon, the National Council for Teacher Education rejected the petitioner’s application dated 21.5.2007 for grant of recognition to D.Ed course under proceeding dated 28.4.2009. The petitioner College seeks a consequential direction to National Council for Teacher Education to grant recognition for the said course forthwith. The matter is squarely covered by the judgment, dated 16.12.2009 in W.P.No:6712 of 2009. Thereby, a learned Judge of this Court held that the power of the State Government to review the policy as to the necessity or otherwise of according permission to establish new colleges could not be extended to existing institutions. The learned Judge observed that the right that accrued to such colleges could not be taken away on account of subsequent change of policy. In terms of the aforestated decision, the writ petition is disposed of directing the National Council for Teacher Education to consider the petitioner college’s case for granting permission for commencing D.Ed course independently and pass appropriate orders as expeditiously as possible. No order as to the costs. _________________ Justice Sanjay Kumar Date:27.7.2010. gurc THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT PETITION NO:18063 OF 2010 27th JULY, 2010
