After hearing respective counsel, we find that last order passed by the Education Officer gave signing powers to one Parsodkar – Supervisor from 1.10.2010 to 31.12.2010 and regular Head Master was directed to be appointed within a period of three months. It is also not in dispute that said period of signing powers was extended from time to time and in the meanwhile according to the petitioner one A.R. Deshpande has been appointed as regular Head Master. The other group in the Management ( as alleged) claims that they have appointed respondent no.4 as Head Master. The last communication pointed out gave signing powers to Shri Parsodkar and specifically 2 observed/directed that regular Head Master should be appointed within a period of three months. Accordingly the petitioner has already appointed regular Head Master and proposal seeking approval to that regular appointment is pending with respondent no.2 Education Officer. In this situation, we direct respondent no.2- Education Officer to take appropriate decision on that proposal after giving opportunity of hearing to the petitioner, Shri A.R. Deshpande as also respondents no.4 and 5 as early as possible and in any case within a period of four months from today. The parties shall appear before respondent no.2-Education Officer on 19.7.2011 and shall abide by his further instructions in the matter. Certified copy expedited. Petition accordingly disposed of.
