Subsequently, the Government issued orders to approve the appointments made prior to December 2004 in newly upgraded schools without appointing protected teachers. The Government has prepared a list of such teachers whose appointments are to be approved accordingly. However, in the list prepared, the petitioner does not find a place, although according to the petitioner he is also entitled to be so included. 2. In the above circumstances, he has filed Ext.P7 representation before the Government. The petitioner seeks expeditious disposal of Ext.P7. W.P.(c)No.30749/07 2 4.
