DATE: 17th December, 2008. DATE: 17th December, 2008. DATE: 17th December, 2008. P.C. P.C. P.C. 1. The petitioners’ grievance is that the respondent no.2 is not granting necessary approval and is not notifying appointment of the petitioner No.2 as a 2 Head Master of the 1st petitioner School. Though the impugned order mentions that the Institution is not a minority Institution, it is conceded that as per earlier certificate, it is a minority Institution. It is pointed out that the petitioner No.2 was not qualified to become Head Master. Admittedly, he did not have requisite experience which has not been disputed by the learned Counsel for the petitioners. Since the petitioner No.2 does not have requisite experience to be appointed as Head Master, even a minority institution cannot have the right to appoint such person as Head Master. Therefore, it is not necessary to give any direction to the respondent No.2 to approve the appointment of the petitioner No.2 as Head Master. The petitioner No.1 may appoint its Head Master in accordance with law. 2. With these observations, the Writ Petition is disposed of. 3. As the Writ Petition is disposed of, the Civil Application does not survive and stands disposed of accordingly. (BILAL NAZKI,J.) (BILAL NAZKI,J.) (BILAL NAZKI,J.) 3 (J.H.BHATIA, J.) (J.H.BHATIA, J.)
