THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 26/05/2011, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: T.R. RAMACHANDRAN NAIR, J. --------------------------------------- W.P.(C) No.14249 OF 2011 --------------------------------------- Dated this the 26th day of May, 2011. J U D G M E N T The petitioners are teachers working as LPSAs and UPSA in the school managed by the 5th respondent. The only complaint raised in the writ petition is that in spite of the Manager submitting a bond, a copy of which has been produced as Ext.P5, in terms of G.O.(P) No.10/2010/G.Edn. dated 12.01.2010, the Educational Officer is not taking any steps in the matter. 2. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned Government Pleader. Learned Government Pleader submitted that the bond submitted by the Manager as per Ext.P5 is with a condition that the same will be subject to the result of W.P.(C) No.9477/2010 pending in the Hon'ble High Court of Kerala. Learned counsel for the Manager submitted that it is clearly declared in Ext.P5 that the Manager is willing and ready to abide by the conditions stipulated in G.O.(P) No.10/2010/G.Edn. dated 12.01.2010. W.P.(C) No.14249/2011 2 3. It cannot be said that the bond submitted is a conditional one in the light of the last sentence in Ext.P5 since legal remedy is always there for the Manager. Therefore, the Assistant Educational Officer will have to pass appropriate orders in the matter. There will be a direction to the Assistant Educational Officer to take a decision in the matter, if the original of Ext.P5 has been received, within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. This writ petition is disposed of as above. T.R. RAMACHANDRAN NAIR JUDGE smp
