The issue relates to staff fixation for the year 2002-2003. 2. The petitioner was initially appointed in the year 1999- 2000 in a vacancy sanctioned by the department in a leave vacancy taken by Smt.Asha.A from 27.10.1999 to 09.03.2000 and the said appointment was approved. In a later vacancy the petitioner was appointed when two teachers had joined for LTT course from 05.06.2000 to 31.03.2001. The said appointment was approved also. 3. By Exhibit P1 order, the Director of Public Instruction by invoking Rule 8A of Chapter XIV-A KER, cancelled the approval. Challenging the same, Exhibit P2 revision petition has been filed by the petitioner before the Government. Learned counsel for W.P.(C) No.6590/2011 2 the petitioner submitted that the Government may be directed to dispose of the same within a time frame. There will be a direction to the 1st respondent to take a decision on Exhibit P2 revision petition, after hearing the petitioner and the Manager, within a period of four months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The petitioner will produce a copy of this judgment along with a copy of the writ petition for compliance. This writ petition is disposed of as above. T.R. RAMACHANDRAN NAIR JUDGE smp
