THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE L.NARASIMHA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.24028 of 2010 ORDER: The petitioners are working in various capacities in respondent No.4-School, which is admitted to grant-in-aid. They made representations to the management of the School as well as the authorities of the Government with a prayer to absorb them in the vacancies, under Class-IV category, which in turn are admitted to grant-in-aid. Reference is made to an order, dated 21.03.1996, issued by the Office of the District Educational Officer. The petitioners seek directions to the respondents to absorb them against the said vacancies. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Government Pleader for School Education. It may be true that the petitioners are continuing in service for the past about two decades in menial posts. If they hold the requisite qualifications, they may be entitled to be absorbed against the available Class-IV vacancies admitted to grant-in-aid. However, for the past several years, the ban imposed by the Government against making appointments to the vacancies in the aided institutions, is operating. Quite large number of matters in relation thereto are pending before the Hon’ble Supreme Court. As long as the ban operates, this Court cannot issue any directions to the respondents vis-à-vis the claim of the petitioners. The petitioners can renew their efforts after the ban is lifted or set aside. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of, leaving it open to the petitioners to make their efforts to get absorbed into aided vacancies as and when the ban imposed against the appointments in aided institutions is lifted or set aside by a Court of law. There shall be no order as to costs. _______________________ L.NARASIMHA REDDY,J Dt: 28.09.2010. kdl
