THE DISTRICT MAGISTRATE AURANGABAD 3. THE DEPUTY DEVELOPMENT COMMISSIONER AURANGABAD 4. THE DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT OF EDUCATION AURANGABAD 5. THE HEAD MIST. GOVERNMENT MIDDLE SCHOOL, P.H.E.D.COLONY P.H.E.D.COLONY, AURANGABAD ----------- 2 04/05/2011 Inaction on the part of the District Superintendent of Education, Aurangabad to take cognizance of the request of the petitioner to give a direction for acceptance of her joining after her returning from training from a Government Training College has compelled the petitioner to approach the High Court for a direction to permit her joining with effect from 20/03/2008 as well as payment of salary as a consequence thereto. The Court fails to understand as to why the people in position saddled with the responsibility to exercise power are not willing to rise to the occasion when they are called upon to do so by a citizen whose life and destiny to some extent is held by them. There - 2 - are no obvious reason why the petitioner is being treated in this fashion when admittedly she went for training at the behest of the respondents and has reported back after completion of her training as is evident from the various documents brought on record. This writ application is disposed of with liberty to the petitioner that she shall file a fresh application with supporting materials before the District Superintendent of Education, Aurangabad i.e. respondent no. 4 with a copy of this order and the District Superintendent of Education is directed to take a decision on the same within a period of four weeks of such application being filed before him. Failure to adhere to the time frame may entail consequences. AMIN/ (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
