Harnarinder Kaur .....Petitioner versus State of Punjab and others .....Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Ms.Jyoti Sarin, Advocate, for the petitioner. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) The petitioner is working as a S.S.Mistress in the Education Department, Government of Punjab and is presently posted in Government High School, Meghowal Ganjian, Hoshiarpur. Her grievance is that under the pretext of rationalization, the post of S.S.Mistress occupied by her has been illogically declared surplus. In this regard, the petitioner is said to have served the respondents with a legal notice dated 3.3.2010 (Annexure P-5) explaining that the subject post cannot be declared surplus as the `Students-Teachers ratio' justifies its retention. It appears that the issue raised by the petitioner has not been examined by the respondents so far. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of with a direction to respondent Nos.2 & 4 to take C.W.P.No .9923 of 2010 2 cognizance of the above-mentioned legal notice and dispose of the petitioner's claim by passing a speaking order as early as possible and preferably within a period of three months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. Till then, the petitioner shall not be transferred from her present place of posting. Dasti. May 26, 2010 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
