(Social Science) working in St. Paul's High School, Kozhinjampara, Palakkad challenges Ext.P4 order dated 17.8.2010 passed by the Director of Public Instruction, Thiruvananthapuram. The learned Government Pleader submitted that against Ext.P4 order, a revision lies to the Government under Rule 92 of Chapter XIVA of the Kerala Education Rules. This statement made by the learned Government Pleader is not disputed by the learned counsel for the petitioner. Since the petitioner has got an effective alternative remedy, I do not think it is necessary to entertain the Writ Petition at this stage. Leaving open the right of the petitioner to challenge Ext.P4 revision before the Government under Rule 92 of Chapter XIVA KER, the Writ Petition is closed. K.T.SANKARAN, JUDGE csl
