According to the petitioner, there are vacancies of teachers in the college in various subjects. Selection can be made to those vacant posts of teachers only if the Government and the University nominates their representatives to constituting a selection committees. The petitioner submits that the university has already forwarded the panel of subject experts to be included in the selection committees. However, the Government is yet to nominate their representatives to the selection committee. The petitioner seeks a direction to the first respondent to nominate their representatives to be members of the selection committees. The learned Government Pleader on instructions submits that the matter is under consideration and the representatives would be nominated within an outer limit of one month. In the above facts and circumstances, I dispose of the writ petition with a direction to the first respondent to nominate their representatives to the selection committee for W.P.(C).No.1883/2010 2 selection of teachers to the vacant posts in the petitioner's college, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within three weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. I make it clear that the nomination of the representatives would not estop the Government or the University from examining whether the work load in the college permits appointment of teachers and take appropriate proceedings in that regard, as per law.
