Office Notes, Office Memoranda of Coram, appearances, Court's orders Court's or Judge's orders or directions and Registrar's orders. CORAM : B.P. DHARMADHIKARI & F.M. REIS, JJ. AUGUST 06, 2009. Heard Shri Kashid, learned counsel for the petitioner and Smt. Bodade, learned AGP for respondents No. 1, 2 & 4. The petitioner is claiming approval to his appointment in 25% graduate quota from 11.3.2000. The reply affidavit filed by the Education Officer on 17.6.2008 shows that proposal for said approval was itself received in the year 2005 and as there was no figure approval from the Educational Session 1991-92 till 2004-05, the approval from 11.3.2000 could not have been granted. It is further mentioned that said post in 25% quota category has been sanctioned in Educational Session 2004-05 for the first time. Shri Kashid, learned counsel for the petitioner, however, states that this stand is incorrect and he wants to produce some documents to show figure approval for the year 1991-92 duly granted by the 2 Education Officer himself. The affidavit reply filed by the Education Officer is dated 17.6.2008. In these circumstances, we cannot look into the documents to be produced before us for the first time. However, we permit the petitioner to make appropriate representation in this respect to Respondent No.4 – Education Officer and to place his grievance for consideration before the said authority. If the authority finds that such figure approval already existed, it should pass appropriate orders so as to redress the grievance of the petitioner in accordance with law. If the representation is made by the petitioner within a period of one month from today, Respondent No. 4 – Education Officer (Secondary), Zilla Parishad, Akola, to decide the same after hearing the management and the petitioner as early as possible and in any case by 31st December 2009. With these directions, writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs. JUDGE JUDGE *GS.
