Counsel for the Petitioner:MR.V.RAJAGOPAL REDDY Counsel for the Respondents NO.1 & 2: GP FOR EDUCATION The Court at the admission stage made the following : ORDER: The petitioner contends that he is working in the 4th respondent school since 1972 as Hindi and Telugu Pandit. The 4th respondent School was recognized by the Government and it is also an aided School. He passed M.A.B.Ed., and he is having 33 years of experience. He is being paid less than Rs.5,000/- per month. The other teachers in the Government Aided School are receiving more than Rs.5,000/- per month. He shall be paid at least Rs.5,000/- per month on par with similarly placed persons. He is also entitled for reimbursement of medical bills. The 4th Respondent is acting in high handed manner and is fixing his pay at a low scale, detrimental to his interest. He made several representations to the concerned authorities to do justice to him. A legal notice was issued to respondents No. 2 and 3 on 26-7- 2004, but in vain. The petitioner, therefore, approached this Court to declare that the action of the respondents in not releasing amounts due to the petitioner as illegal and arbitrary. The petitioner did not give any particulars as to the post in which he was appointed, the actual salary he was receiving and the revisions if any made from time to time, as to how he is entitled to the post of an aided teacher etc. In the absence of those particulars no relief could be granted to the petitioner by invoking extra ordinary jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. The Writ Petition, therefore, cannot be maintained. Hence, it is dismissed. No order as to costs. ----------------------------- Dr. G.Yethirajulu,J. 20th September, 2004.
