JUDGMENT The petitioner was appointed as a Full Time Sanskrit Teacher in a retirement vacancy, but the approval of the same has been given only as a part time teacher. By Ext.P2 staff fixation for the year 2009-2010 also, only a part time post has been sanctioned for the subject Sanskrit. The petitioner contends that a full time post of Sanskrit teacher was sanctioned in the school by diversion of the periods from Group C subjects and Ext.P2 (a) is relied upon in support of the above. Ext.P3 is the Govt. Order permitting the diversion of periods under Group C. The petitioner has already filed a revision petition before the Government in the matter, as per Ext.P6. It is prayed that Ext.P6 may be directed to be disposed of within a time frame. 2. Learned Govt. Pleader submits that Ext.P6 has been received and the same is pending. Therefore, there will be a direction to the first respondent to take a decision on Ext.P6, after hearing the petitioner and the Manager, within a period of four months from the date of receipt of a copy wpc 36520/2009 2 of this judgment. The writ petition is disposed of as above. No costs. (T.R. Ramachandran Nair, Judge.) kav/
