Principal of the College forwarded the list of employees to the University for approval of their services in which name of petitioner was not there and name of one Awadhesh Prasad Singh was mentioned against the post of Store- Keeper. It is stated that the matter went up to the Chancellor and the Chancellor constituted a one Man Committee which submitted its report. The Chart prepared by the Committee 2 in respect of the College in question has been annexed as Annexure-4 with the writ application. In this chart, it is mentioned that the petitioner may be accommodated when the staffing pattern of the post is sanctioned, in place of Awadhesh Prasad Singh. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that Awadhesh Prasad Singh was terminated in 1983 itself and thereafter the post of Store-Keeper has remained vacant in the College till now. However, the University has not acted upon the said direction of the Committee. In the counter affidavit filed on behalf of Veer Kunwar Singh University, there is no reply to this stand of the petitioner and there is no statement in respect of the said chart annexed as Annexure-4 with the writ application. It is only stated that the post of Store-Keeper created by the Governing Body has not yet been approved by the State Government and the petitioner’s name does not find place in the list submitted by the Principal. So far as case of the petitioner is 3 concerned, the same has to be considered in the light of the report of the said Committee. Therefore, name of the petitioner was not in the list submitted by the Principal is of no consequence. University has to take into account the recommendations of the Committee, which after approval of the Chancellor became directions issued by him, and to act upon the same. So far as sanction of post is concerned, it is not understandable that in the College there will not be even a single post of Store-Keeper. University has to consider whether the solitary post of Store-Keeper has to be taken as deemed sanctioned post under the staffing pattern or not and fill up the same. In case, post of Store-Keeper is not included in the staffing pattern, University is directed to refer the matter to the State Government and obtain necessary directions for filling up the post as early as possible in terms of the directions of the Chancellor. The writ application is disposed of with the aforesaid observations and directions. Pradeep/ ( J. N. Singh,J.)
