THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 17/02/2010,THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: prv. S. SIRI JAGAN, J. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - W.P.(C)No. 5225 of 2010 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dated this the 17th day of February, 2010 J U D G M E N T The petitioner was appointed as U.P.S.A on 16.07.2007 in an aided school managed by the 3rd respondent. The appointment of the petitioner was not approved in view of a ban, on creation of new posts, imposed by the Government. In the meanwhile two retirement vacancies arose on 01.04.2008. Disregarding the claim of the petitioner, the manager appointed 4th & 5th respondents in the retirement vacancies on 02.06.2008 and 03.06.2008. Those appointments were approved by the 2nd respondent. Challenging those approval the petitioner preferred Ext.P5 appeal before the 1st respondent. Petitioner seeks a direction to consider and pass orders on Ext.P5 appeal as expeditiously as possible. 2. I have heard the learned Government Pleader also. In view of the order I propose to pass, I do not think W.P.(C)No. 5225 of 2010 -2- that it is necessary to issue notice to respondents 3 to 5 at this juncture. 3. In so far as Ext.P5 is pending it is appropriate that the 1st respondent passes orders on the same expeditiously. Accordingly I dispose of this writ petition with a direction to the respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P5 as expeditiously as possible, at any rate within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner and respondents 3 to 5. 4. The petitioner shall forward a copy of the writ petition along with a certified copy of this judgment to the 1st respondent for compliance. S. SIRI JAGAN JUDGE shg/
