Show cause notices were issued against respondents 3 and 4 who were working in a school alleging misconduct including moral turpitude. They were suspended pending enquiry. By Exts.P10 and P10(a) they were directed to be reinstated. We are not going into the merits of the matter in this appeal as any expression of opinion on merit may affect the parties. The only prayer pressed was for disposal of Ext.P11 revision petition. On the facts and circumstances of the case and considering the allegations and also considering the fact that it is an educational institution, we direct that Ext.P11 revision petition filed before the Government shall be disposed of according to law, as early as possible. We direct the statutory authority, first respondent, to dispose of the matter as early as possible, in any event, within one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. Till that time, status quo should be maintained. Both sides should be given an opportunity of hearing before passing orders. The appeal is disposed of accordingly. J.B.KOSHY JUDGE K.HEMA JUDGE tks
