Ramachandran Nair, J. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - W.P.(C) No. 418 of 2011-B - - - - -- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Dated this the 6th day of January, 2011. JUDGMENT The petitioner is working as Higher Secondary School Teacher (Commerce) in the school managed by the fourth respondent. The main relief sought for in the writ petition is for a direction to the respondents to regularise the service of the petitioner as HSST (Commerce) from 27.10.2001. There is a further prayer to direct the first respondent to effectively consider and pass orders on Exts.P6 and P7 after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner within a time limit. 2. The issue pertains to the claim for regularisation. The petitioner was granted regularisation only with effect from the date of acquisition of the B.Ed. Qualification which is in November 2003. The petitioner complains that the same will result in huge financial loss and that regularisation from 2001 is permissible under the statutory rules. It is in these circumstances the petitioner has approached the Government by filing Ext.P6 representation. Ext.P7 is the reminder submitted by the petitioner before the first respondent. 3. There will be a direction to the first respondent to consider and wpc 418/2011 2 pass orders on Ext.P6 after hearing the petitioner and the fourth respondent Manager, within a period of four months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The petitioner will produce a copy of this judgment along with a copy of the writ petition before the first respondent for compliance. The writ petition is disposed of as above. No costs. (T.R. Ramachandran Nair, Judge.) kav/
