To Judge jes A.K.BASHEER, J. --------------------------------------------- W.P.(C)No.10818 OF 2005 --------------------------------------------- Dated this the 27th day of July, 2007 JUDGMENT Petitioner was appointed as a Junior Arabic Teacher (Full time) in Government Lower Primary School, Chembilode in a short term vacancy with effect from September 23, 2004. Ext.P2 shows that she is a disabled person. It is contended by the petitioner that she is entitled to be reinstated and allowed to continue in service in the light of the Government Orders granting such benefits to disabled person. 2. I am afraid that the contention raised by the petitioner is totally misconceived. It is true that the Government had extended some benefits to handicapped persons, who were provisionally employed between January 1, 1997 and August 14, 1998, in connection with the Golden jubilee celebration independence of India. The said benefit was later extended till August 15, 1999. Admittedly, petitioner does not fall the category of those beneficiaries. Therefore, the petitioner is not entitled to get any relief in this writ petition. Writ petition fails and it is accordingly dismissed. A.K.BASHEER, JUDGE jes
