Petitioner is aggrieved by Ext. P1 order of the Government directing the Director of Public Instruction to take steps to fix the liability on account of payment of pay and allowances to be made good from the Manager. The learned Single Judge disposed of the matter directing that if the Manager had violated any of the provisions in the Kerala Education Rules or any departmental directions resulting in loss to Government, appropriate action can be taken against the manager with due notice, as provided for in Rule 7 Chapter III of Kerala Education Rules. Since the Director of Public Instruction is directed to take steps to fix the liability, it is a matter for him to decide in accordance with law after hearing the WA No.4043 /2001 -2- Manager. The writ appeal is disposed of. K.S. RADHAKRISHNAN JUDGE ANTONY DOMINIC JUDGE jan/
