THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION Nos. 610, 613, 1312, 1720, 1722, 1853, 1854, 1855, 1856, 1857, 1858, 1865, 1867 and 1901 of 2007 Dated:15.02.2007 Between: SSR Educational Society and others. …Petitioners and National Council for Teacher Education and others. …Respondents THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE R.SUBHASH REDDY WRIT PETITION Nos.610, 613, 1312, 1720, 1722, 1853, 1854, 1855, 1856, 1857, 1858, 1865, 1867 and 1901 of 2007 COMMON ORDER: Petitioners-colleges filed these Writ Petitions questioning the proceedings dated 23.12.2006 issued by the National Council for Teacher Education. By the aforesaid proceedings, list of existing B.Ed Colleges whose recognition is continued for the academic year 2006-2007 is communicated to the Secretary, School Education, Government of A.P. It is the grievance of the petitioners that their names do not find place in the said list. On 21.12.2006, individual notices were sent to the Colleges stating that they have not shifted to their own permanent premises as per the condition notified at the time of initial grant of recognition and an explanation was sought from the respective Colleges as to why their recognition should not be withdrawn for noncompliance of the conditions imposed by the National Council for Teacher Education within a period of fifteen days from the date of receipt of the such notices. Mainly, the Writ Petitions are filed questioning the deletion of the petitioners-Colleges from the said list on the ground that though in the show cause notice dated 21.12.2006 fifteen days time was granted to comply the norms, even before expiry of the said time, the list was communicated to the State Government by deleting the petitioners- Colleges. Though no counter affidavits have been filed, it is submitted by Sri B. Adinarayana Rao, learned Standing Counsel appearing for the National Council for Teacher Education, that subsequent to the impugned proceedings, the Council itself has taken a decision to give an year’s time for the Colleges to construct their own buildings and to shift the existing Colleges, subject to giving an undertaking by the individual Colleges. As much as the very Council, which had issued notices to the petitioners for not shifting the Colleges to their own buildings, has now taken a decision to grant an year’s time to the petitioners, I dispose of the Writ Petitions directing the respondents to grant recognition to the petitioners-Colleges for the academic year 2006-2007 and allot students, subject to their giving undertaking as sought by the National Council for Teacher Education to shift to their own buildings within a period of one academic year. On petitioners-Colleges filing proof of such undertaking to the Convener, Ed.Cet-2006-07, he shall allot students for the academic year 2006-2007. Subject to the above directions, these Writ Petitions are disposed of. No order as to costs. ___________________ (R.SUBHASH REDDY, J) 15.02.2007 vv
