SHRI.A.J.HAMSA, GOVERNMENT PLEADER THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 25/11/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC, J. -------------------------- W.P.(C) No.34633 OF 2008 ------------------------------------- Dated this the 25th day of November 2008 J U D G M E N T The petitioners were appointed as UPSAs in the school of which the 5th respondent is the Manager. Approval of the petitioners' appointments was rejected by Exts.P3 & P4, and appeals filed to the Deputy Director also resulted in rejection by Exts.P5 & P6. Though the Manager carried the matter in appeal before the DPI by filing Exts.P7 & P8, that still remains undecided. 2. In the meanwhile, realising that what stands in the way of the petitioners is Ext.P11 Government Order, the petitioners chose to move the 1st respondent by filing Exts.P9 & P10 revisions invoking the power under Rule 92 of Chapter XIV-A, K.E.R. In this writ petition, what is sought for is a direction to the 1st respondent to dispose of Exts.P9 & P10 with notice to the petitioners and 5th respondent on an expeditious basis. WP(C) No.34633/2008 -2- 3. Having regard to the facts as stated above, I am inclined to dispose of the writ petition with the following directions :- That the first respondent shall dispose of Exts.P9 & P10 revisions filed by the petitioners, with notice to the petitioners and 5th respondent as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within three months of production of a copy of this judgment. The petitioners shall produce a copy of this judgment along with a copy of this writ petition before the 1st respondent for compliance. (ANTONY DOMINIC, JUDGE) jg
