He has approached this court for a direction to the PSC and to Deputy Director of Education, Pathanamthitta to report vacancies and advice the petitioner in the turn applicable. The learned standing counsel for the Public Service Commission submits that advice has been made to the vacancies which have been reported and candidates upto rank no.5 have been advised. A counter has been filed by the 4th respondent stating that in Pathanamthitta district there is no vacancy at present and as per the latest staff fixation order one teacher is in excess and that when further vacancies arise the same would be reported. In view of the above statement, I do not think that any relief can be granted to the petitioner in this writ petition. Accordingly the W.P.(C) No. 29714/2007 -2- statements of the respondents as above are recorded and the writ petition is closed without prejudice to the right of the petitioner to approach this Court again if and when any vacancy which can be reported to the PSC arises within the period of validity of the rank list.
