Korhalkar, Advocate for respondent no.3. Respondent no.4 served. ..... CORAM: D.B. BHOSALE & M.T. JOSHI, JJ. DATE: 18.04.2011 PER COURT : Heard learned counsel for the respective parties. In this writ petition, the petitioner has made the following prayer: WP 511/11 - 2 - "[B] By issuing appropriate writ in the nature of writ of mandamus or orders or directions or any other writ in like nature, respondent- Education Officer (Secondary) may please be directed to issue appropriate ministerial orders(s) i.e. granting approval to appointment of petitioner, in the light of law declared by this Court in case of "Shailaja", referred herein above." From perusal of the writ petition so also from the annexures to the writ petition and more particularly letter dated 6.11.2009 issued by Deputy Education Officer, Aurangabad Division, Aurangabad, it is clear that respondent no.2 - Education Officer (Secondary) had refused approval initially vide letter dated 20.3.2005 and then vide letter dated 6.11.2009. Both these orders are not challenged by the petitioner either in the present writ petition or before any other appropriate authority. In the absence of challenge to these orders, in our opinion, the prayer as made in the writ petition cannot be entertained and hence the petition is dismissed. (M.T. JOSHI, J.) (D.B.
