Rule returnable forthwith. Heard finally with the consent of learned counsel for the parties. 2. Learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned G.P. have jointly stated before us that the case in hand is covered by the decision of Bombay High Court, Bench at Aurangabad, in W.P. No. 5893 of 2008 and connected writ petitions decided on 17.11.2008 and this writ petition can also be disposed of in the light of the said judgment. 3. In the light of the above joint submission, we make the same operative order as was made in the said writ petitions decided on 6 17.11.2008. 4. Writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondents to consider the claim of the petitioners for stagnation increment/time bound promotion, as and when submitted in the light of three Government Resolutions dated 30.4.1998, 23.7.1998 and 28.11.2006. For the purpose of considering 12 years service, Government Resolutions do not seem to mandate that at the time of commencement of qualifying service by employee, school must be on Government grants. We believe that the respondents shall consider the claim of the petitioners as early as possible. Rule made absolute in above terms. No order as to costs. JUDGE JUDGE
