Respondents **** /2/ 02.03.2009 Heard the counsel for the petitioners and the State. - 2 - 2. Petitioners are claiming that they have passed out their senior secondary (10+2) examination from Nav Bharat Shikcha Parishad, Rourkila, Orissa. 10+2 examination is equivalent to intermediate examination. Petitioners’ prayer is that letter, dated 29.12.2008, vide Memo No. 262 be quashed as on the basis of direction contained in this letter, they are not being considered for appointment on the post of Panchayat teacher for the reason that their certificates are not recognized and the institution, from where they have passed out, is considered as fake institution. 3. I do not think any reason for issuing such direction considering the fact that there is nothing to show that the institution is recognized by the National Council for Teachers' Education or by the University Grant Commission for imparting such education. There is nothing on record to show that petitioners have attended regular classes of 10+2 course. The institution itself, when found fake, no such direction can be issued. 4. This application is dismissed. Cp:2/S.A. (Mridula Mishra, J.)
