Issue notice. parties agreed that the matter may be finally decided at the admission stage.
By the present writ petition, the petitioner has prayed for the issue of a writ of mandamus directing the respondents to give the charge of Principal to the petitioner of Junior High School (Hat Kalika Mandir) Binddu Khatta, Lalkuwa, District Nainital.
Brief facts giving rise to the present writ petition are that according to the petitioner he was appointed on 5[th] November 1997 on the post of Head Master of Junior High School (Hat Kalika Mandir) Binddu Khatta, Lalkuwa, District Nainital.
The petitioner has submitted that on 28[th] August 1998 the order was passed by the Manager of the said Junior High School for the permanent appointment on the post of Head Master of the petitioner.
The petitioner has further submitted that the Junior High School has been upgraded as a High School in the year 2001. On 20[th] June 2002, the management has sent the approval of the petitioner as a Principal and the recommendation was sent to the District Inspector of Schools on 20[th] June 2002.
The grievance of the petitioner is that he is holding the post of Principal of an unaided High School, but the committee of Management had appointed the respondent No. 6 on 19[th] August 2002, who was the part-time teacher in the School and the Management has directed the petitioner to give the charge of the Principal to the respondent No. 6.
The petitioner has referred a Circular dated 13[th] January 2002 by which it will appear that under the Intermediate Education Act, if the Head Master of the Junior High School is having the qualification of becoming the Principal of the upgraded school, the same can be considered and it will not be advisable to bifurcate the Junior High School and Urgraded High School in two parts. The petitioner has submitted that in view of the Government Order dated 13[th]January 2003 on 18[th] October 2003 an order was passed directing the petitioner to take the charge of the Principal. Clause 2 and 3 of the Government Order dated 13[th] January 2003 is quoted below:- ^^2- iz/kkuk/;kid dh fu;qfDr mRrj izns’k ¼mRrjkapy½ f’k{kk vf/kfu;e 1921 ds v/;k; nks o ifjf’k"V & d ds vuqlkj U;wure vgZrk okys v/;kidksa dks fu;qDr fd;k tk ldrk gSA ftl twfu;j gkbZLdwy ds iz/kkuk/;kid ;fn vgZ rks dk;Z lapkyu dk nkf;R/o mugs lkSik tk ldrk gSA
