(Oral) The Writ Petition hs been filed with the following prayers:- “(i) That a writ in the nature of certiorari may kindly be issued for quashing the order dated 30.09.2009. (ii) A writ in the nature of mandamus may kindly be issued directing the respondents allow the petitioner to work at Govt. Senior Secondary School-K Tehsil Dalhousie, Distt. Chamba, H.P.” 2. Learned Senior Additional Advocate General, on instruction, submits that regular/ contract basis teacher has been appointed in the school and hence the teacher appointed on the PTA basis cannot be continued in the school. There cannot be any quarrel about the 2 submission. Once regular teacher/ teacher on contract basis is appointed in the school, a teacher appointed by the PTA has to give room for teacher appointed on regular/ contract basis. But the contentikon of the petitioner is that PTA cannot be accommodated in another school, where regular/ contract teacher can be accommodated in the vacant post in the nearby schools. 3. The petitioner may point out all these aspects before the first respondent, in which case the first respondent will take appropriate action in the matter in accordance with law and justice within two weeks from today, taking note also of the vacancy position as pointed out by the petitioner. . 4. The Writ Petition is disposed of, so also the pending applications. 5. Dasti copy on usual terms. (Justice Kurian Joseph), Chief Justice April 29, 2010 (Justice R.B. Misra), (rks) Judge.
