In the High Court of Punjab and Haryana, Chandigarh CWP No. 14946 of 2006 Date of Decision: October 24, 2006 Sudesh Gupta …Petitioner Versus State of Haryana and others …Respondents CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE M.M. KUMAR HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE M.M.S. BEDI PRESENT: Mr. S.P. Laler, Advocate, for the petitioner. JUDGMENT M.M. KUMAR, J. (Oral) The case of the petitioner has already been recommended by the Principal, Government Senior Secondary School, Karnal (P-1) by expressing the view that the post of Lecturer of Economics is not to be declared as surplus. The recommendation further shows that two posts of Lecturers are required in the aforementioned school and only two sanctioned posts are there which may be maintained. It appears that no decision has been taken on the aforesaid recommendation made by the Principal and the decision is likely to CWP No. 14946 of 2006 affect the petitioner, who is one of the two lecturers in Economics working in that school. Without expressing any opinion on the merit of the controversy raised, we deem it just and appropriate to direct respondent No. 2 to take a final decision on the aforementioned communication (P-1) sent by the Principal, Government Senior Secondary School, Karnal, expeditiously preferably within a period of two months from the date a certified copy of this order is supplied to him. It shall be appreciated if a speaking order by taking into consideration the rationalisation policy is passed. The petition stands disposed of in the above terms. (M.M. KUMAR) JUDGE (M.M.S.
