In all these petitions, a substantive relief sought by the petitioners is that the respondents- Educational Institutions where the Petitioners are working as Assistant Teachers be directed to promote them on pay scale as Assistant Teachers with effect from various dates with all other consequential -2- service benefits. In the alternative, they seek that they should be promoted and appointed as Lecturer in Junior College. Therefore, in substance, what the petitioners are seeking is promotion. 3. The learned Counsel appearing for the respondents-Educational Institutions point out to us that the petitioners have alternative efficacious remedy to approach the School Tribunal under Section 9 of the Maharashtra Employees of Private Schools Act and therefore, this Court should not entertain this petition. If, the petitioners have any grievance regarding denial of promotion, they may very well approach the School Tribunal in the matter. 4. We, therefore, dismiss these petitions with liberty to the petitioners to approach the School Tribunal, subject to Law of limitation. (MRIDULA BHATKAR, J.) (J. N. PATEL, J.) jpc/-
