No.30300/2011-J ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dated this the 8th day of December, 2011 J U D G M E N T The petitioner is working as Higher Secondary School Teacher (Junior) Malayalam in fourth respondent's Aravukad Higher Secondary School, Punnappra. It is the case of the petitioner that she is working as such from 01/08/2003. She was appointed against the third post in Malayalam as H.S.S.T (Junior) by Ext.P1 order. But so far, the post has not been sanctioned and approval has not been granted. 2. Various details have been furnished by the petitioner in the writ petition with regard to the requirement of sanction for the said post. The petitioner is relying upon Ext.P5 Government Order dated 03-08-2011 sanctioning additional batches. In the fourth respondent's school, one additional batch with subject combination, History, Economics, Political Science and Malayalam was sanctioned. It required additional work load of 8 periods per week apart from 6 W.P.(C). No.30300/2011 -:2:- periods per week for Malayalam 2nd language (total 14 periods per week). Accordingly, it is pointed out that this additional workload will suffice for sanctioning a H.S.S.T (Jr.) (Malayalam) in the school. It is further pointed out that in respect of not sanctioning of posts during the earlier years, the petitioner has filed W.P. (C).Nos.24430/2010 and 12858/2011 which are pending before this Court. 3. The petitioner submits that staff fixation has not been finalised. 4. Learned Government Pleader on getting instructions submitted that three months time will be required to go into the matter and the staff fixation will also require sufficient time for finalisation. Therefore, there will be a direction to respondent Nos.1 to 3 to look into the matter and take appropriate action within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this Judgment with notice to the petitioner and the Management. The writ petition is disposed of as above. No costs. W.P.(C). No.30300/2011 -:3:- The petitioner will produce a copy of the writ petition along with a certified copy of the Judgment before the respondents for compliance. Sd/- (T.R. Ramachandran Nair, Judge.) ms
