J U D G M E N T The petitioner has filed this writ petition seeking to quash Exhibits P4 and P5 to the extent it grants only part time post of Sanskrit Teacher and for a direction to the 3rd respondent to restore full-time post of Sanskrit Teacher in North Mopila U.P. School, Mattool from 1999 onwards. 2. The petitioner was initially appointed as full-time L.G Sanskrit Teacher with effect from 23.06.1999 in the said School. The vacancy arose due to the promotion of one C.Sasidharan. The appointment was approved only on part-time basis by the Assistant Educational Officer. The petitioner has produced herein various details regarding staff fixation, divisions sanctioned etc. in the school. 3. It is pointed out that the petitioner has been offering her service as full-time L.G.Sanskrit Teacher with effect from 23.06.1999, but she was granted full time salary only with effect W.P.(C) No.15005/09 2 from 01.09.2004. Presently, the revision petition filed by the petitioner is pending before the Government against Exhibit P4 order passed by the Deputy Director of Education. Various grounds have been stated in Exhibit P7 for sanctioning full-time post of Sanskrit Teacher from the date of her appointment. Since Exhibit P7 is pending before the Government, there will be a direction to the first respondent to take a decision on Exhibit P7, after hearing the petitioner and the 4th respondent herein, within a period of three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. This writ petition is disposed of as above. T.R. RAMACHANDRAN NAIR JUDGE smp
