It appears that the petitioner made a representation to the respondents stating that he is fully qualified and entitled to be designated as Assistant Professor as per the terms of Circular dated 22.1.1999, whereas the Principal of the said college wrote a letter dated 26.8.1998 to the higher authorities seeking a clarification. Under those circumstances, the petitioner filed the present writ petition. While admitting the writ petition on 11.2.1999 in WPMP No.3215 of 1999, this Court directed the respondents to receive the application of the petitioner for the purpose of confirmation of designation of Assistant Professor and further directed that the results of the process may not be announced, pending further orders. 2nd respondent-College filed a detailed counter affidavit denying the allegations made by the petitioner and asserting that the petitioner is not entitled to the designation of Assistant Professor, as per law. It seems, no information is available what exactly happened to the clarification sought for by the Principal of the said College on 26.8.1998 on the representation made by the petitioner. Under those circumstances, the respondents are directed to consider the case of the petitioner for re- designating him to the post of Assistant Professor in pursuance of the Circular dated 22.1.1999, if he is otherwise eligible, as per law, and if not already designated as Assistant Professor. With the above observation, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. _________ 31-10-2007 rkk
