The petitioner claims to have been working as an honorary teacher since 01.09.19 91 in Bormukai L. P. School, Majuli. In respect of honorary teachers, there is, in force, an office memorandum, dated 21.01.2004, whereunder the State Governmen t has clarified that while making appointment of regular teachers or while regul arizing the services of honorary teachers, the State Government would give them preference in the form of relaxation of age for the purpose of taking the benefi t of their experience. The petitioner, therefore, claims that being an honorary teacher, he too is covered by the Office Memorandum, dated 21.01.2004. What is, now, necessary to note is that the petitioner does not claim that there is any regular selection process in progress.

Be that as it may, this writ petition is disposed of with direction to the respo ndents that as and when selection for appointment of teachers, on regular basis, is resorted to by the Government and if the petitioner offers his candidature f or selection and appointment, the petitioner shall be given the benefit of, and be treated to be covered by, the Office Memorandum, dated 21.01.2004, aforementi oned provided that the petitioner is found to be an honorary teacher as mentione d in the Office Memorandum, dated 21.01.2004 and if he is otherwise eligible for such selection and appointment.
