JUDGMENT The petitioner is a Guest Lecturer working in the Regional Centre of Sree Sankaracharya University of Sanskrit, Thirunnavaya, Malappuram District. This is a case where the petitioner seeks regularisation in the service of the University. It is pointed out that a regular selection was done on 1.1.1996 and the petitioner was appointed as per Ext.P1 order. The same was set aside by this Court along with the appointment of several other persons. Thereafter, the petitioner is continuing as Guest Lecturer without break and so far no action has been taken by the University to effect fresh appointment on a regular basis or to regularise the service of the petitioner. It is pointed out that several other persons have been regularised in service. Seeking for the benefit of regularisation in service, the petitioner has submitted Ext.P7 repreentation before the Vice Chancellor of the University. 2. Heard learned Standing Counsel for the University. 3. It is upto the competent authority to take a decision in the matter. It is evident that the Syndicate is the competent authority. Therefore, wpc 22010/2011 2 Ext.P7 will be placed before the Syndicate of the University and the Syndicate will take an appropriate decision within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. It is made clear that I have not expressed anything on the merits of the matter. The writ petition is disposed of as above. No costs. (T.R. Ramachandran Nair, Judge.) kav/
