BY GOVERNMENT PLEADER SHRI.A.J.VARGHESE SRI.V.PHILIP MATHEW THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 16/01/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: S.SIRI JAGAN, J. ================== W.P.(C).No.35759 of 2007 ================== Dated this the 16th day of January, 2008 J U D G M E N T The petitioner is now challenging the orders passed against her in a dispute between the petitioner on the one hand and the 6th respondent on the other, regarding a seniority dispute and eligibility for promotion to the post of headmistress. This writ petition was filed at a time when the District Educational Officer had not passed orders on the petition filed by the petitioner in this regard. Now the petitioner has received Ext.P10 order in this regard. The petitioner seriously challenges the date put on Ext.P10. She also contends that the signatory of Ext.P10 order is also not the DEO. The learned Government Pleader offers some explanation for this discrepancy. However, I am of opinion that the petitioner should take up the matter in revision before the Government under Rule 92 of Chapter XIV-A of the KER. Therefore, if the petitioner files a revision within two weeks' time, along with a certified copy of this judgment, the 1st respondent shall consider and same and pass appropriate orders thereon, 2 within a period of three months from the date of receipt of the same, after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner, the 5th respondent and the 6th respondent. The writ petition is disposed of as above. Sd/- sdk+ S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE ///True copy/// P.A. to Judge
