The petitioner has obtained his degree of Intermediate, in the year 2002 from the Central Board of Higher Education. The issue relating to genuineness of such certificates issued by the Central Board of Higher Education, was examined by the State Govt. the District Superintendent of education, Jehanabad had also conducted an enquiry with regard to the genuineness of the institution itself and it was found to be non-existing institution. The C.B.S.E., New Delhi, also through its’ letters had declared the Central Board of Higher Education as a fake institution. Since the petitioner had applied for the post of Panchayat teacher on the basis of Intermediate certificate issued from a fake institution, his name was deleted from the merit list, as he did not possess requisite qualification for being appointed as a Panchayat teacher. Considering that there is no merit in this application, it is dismissed. DKS/ (Mridula Mishra, J.)
