However, the said appointment was not approved. The order of her appointment was declined to be approved as per Ext.P2. Aggrieved by Ext.P2 the petitioner has preferred Ext.P3 revision petition under Rule 92 of Chapter XIV A of the Kerala Education Rules before the first respondent. When this matter came up for admission on 26.3.2010, this Court after adverting to the relevant provisions under the KER found that the remedy of the petitioner is to prefer an appeal against Ext.P2. After the institution of this writ petition, the petitioner has preferred Ext.P8 appeal before the District Educational Officer. Ext.P8 is a statutory appeal preferred against Ext.P2. In the said circumstances, without making any observation as to the merits of the contention raised by the petitioner in this writ petition, it is disposed of with a direction to the additional 5th respondent to consider and pass orders on Ext.P8 WPC.No.10350/2010 : 2 : expeditiously, at any rate, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment with notice to the petitioner and the 4th respondent.
