DATE : 28TH SEPTEMBER 2010. 2 WP2923/10 P.C. :- 1] Rule, returnable forthwith. Heard finally by consent of the parties. 2] The petitioner was appointed in D.Ed. Scale in 1995. The Education Officer by order dated 6th May 2008 had given approval to B.Ed. Scale with effect from 1st December 1999. The claim of the petitioner is that he was working in D.Ed. Scale from 1st October 1998. There is an order on record dated 1st October 1998, but that order does not state that the petitioner has been appointed in B.Ed. Scale. The learned counsel appearing for petitioner relied on the order of the Management dated 5th December 2008 which appoints the petitioner in B.Ed. Scale with retrospective effect from 1st July 1997, but we have not been shown any authority in the Management to appoint Teachers with retrospective effect. We do not find any substance in the petition. Petition is rejected with no order as to costs. 3 WP2923/10 Parties to act on the copy of this order duly authenticated by Sheristedar / Private Secretary of this Court. Certified copy expedited.
