Mr. Mishra, the learned counsel for the respondent-Zilla Parishad has placed before us a copy of the written instructions, which he received on fax from the Zilla Parishad. The same is taken on record at his request and marked as `X' for identification. As per the said instructions, all these petitioners/Assistant Teachers have been issued the orders on 2.12.2008 by the Block Development Officer of the concerned Panchayat Samiti under the instructions from the Zilla Parishad to the effect that they have been reinstated and the impugned order/notice of termination of service has been stayed for the time being. The order notes that the proceedings before the competent Caste Scrutiny Committee in respect of all these petitioners are presently pending and the petitioners have been directed to submit the caste verification certificate within three months i. e. in the first week of March, 2009. 2. We find that the decision taken by the Zilla Parishad is just and proper and the petitioners have been given sufficient time to submit the caste validity certificate. 3. As the petitioners have already been granted the relief by the respondent-Zilla Parishad, we dispose off all these petitions and while doing so, we direct the concerned Caste Verification Committee to expedite the pending proceedings and complete the same by the end of February 2009. The petitioners to appear before the concerned Committee within one week from today and submit a copy of this order along with an application for the information of the Committee. 4. We make it clear that the case of the petitioner in Writ Petition No.4848/2008 is not pending before the Committee concerned and the stay granted in her case by the Zilla Parishad will be operative till her petition is pending, as has already been ordered, by this Court.
