WP(C) 4662/2010 BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE HRISHIKESH ROY The order of 28.6.201 (Annexure-11) of the Inspector of Schools, Dhubri, whereby the Managing Committee of the Gauripur Girls High School was re-constituted, is challenged by the petitioners. They contend that the re-constitution has been ordered by the Inspector of Schools without approval of the Director of Secondar y Education, as is mandated by Rule-6 of the Assam Aided Higher Secondary, High & Middle English School Management Rules, 1976. 2. Mr. AK Purkayastha, learned counsel submits that the re-constitution of the Managing Committee has been ordered for extraneous consideration because of the pressure exerted by the local MLA. 3. In the counter affidavit filed by the respondent No.2 on 3.3.2011, the c ontention of the petitioners is found to be admitted with the following averment s made in paragraph-12 of the counter affidavit:- Further, it is reported by the Inspector of Schools, Dhubri District Circle, Dh ubri that the impugned order of re-constitution of the School Managing Committee dated 28.06.2010 (Annexure-11 to the writ petition) was issued as he was pressu rized by the local Member of Legislative Assembly (MLA), Gauripur Constituency, Md. Mohibul Haque to act upon his letter dated 23.03.2010. 4. Since it is clearly admitted that approval of the higher authority was n ot obtained before the School Managing Committee was re-constituted, the impugne d order dated 28.6.2010 of the Inspector of Schools re-constituting the School M anaging Committee of the Gauripur Girls High School is held to be bad in law and the same is quashed. The respondents may now take the consequential steps for notifying a fresh Managing Committee for the school, by considering the resoluti on adopted on 4.7.2010 in the General Meeting of the guardians and the local pub lic. Necessary steps in this regard be taken expeditiously and preferably within 8 weeks, since the development of the school is adversely affected in the absen ce of regular Managing Committee. 5. The case is disposed of accordingly without any order of cost.
