Kirpal Chand .....Petitioner versus State of Punjab and others .....Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.R.K.Arya, Advocate, for the petitioner. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) The petitioner seeks a mandamus for his appointment as Hindi Master in the reserved category of Scheduled Caste, on the plea that he is higher in merit than respondent Nos.4 & 5. The petitioner's further case is that he has not been awarded 8 marks for the higher qualification of M.Phil while calculating his merit. The petitioner is said to have represented the authorities in this regard vide a representation dated 25.7.2011 (Annexure P-5) but without any response thereto. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner, I find that the issue raised by the petitioner requires ascertainment of the correct facts for CWP No.17845 of 2011 [2] which respondent Nos.2 & 3 are well equipped being the custodian of the records. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of with a direction to respondent Nos.2 & 3 to verify the above mentioned claim of the petitioner and dispose of the same by passing a speaking order, within a period of three months from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. In case the petitioner's assertion is found to be correct, it is obvious that he is entitled to all the consequential benefits, except arrears thereof. Ordered accordingly. Dasti.
