The said appointment was rejected as per Ext.P1 order dated 19-02-2010. Feeling aggrieved by Ext.P1 order, the petitioner has preferred Ext.P2 appeal dated 05-05-2010 before the second respondent and the same is still pending. 2. The petitioner challenges Ext.P1 based on the decision of this Court reported in D.V.M.N.N.M. Higher Secondary School Vs. Secretary to Government [2009 (3) KLT 488] and the judgment in W.P.(C) No.35436/2002. In fact, he has raised all such contentions in Ext.P2 appeal. Since Ext.P2 is a statutory appeal, the second respondent is bound to consider the same and pass orders thereon. Hence, this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the second respondent to consider Ext.P2 appeal and pass orders thereon, expeditiously, at any rate, within a period of two months WPC.18348/2010 : 2 : from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. The petitioner and the fifth respondent shall be afforded an opportunity of being heard before passing orders on Ext.P2. Sd/- (C.T.RAVIKUMAR, JUDGE) aks // True Copy // P.A. To Judge
