JUDGEMENT

(1.) MADAN Dixit is a L. T. grade teacher at the Kisan Uchchatar Madhyamik Vidyalaya Sallahpur, Deoria. Bis grievance is that his seniority as a L. T. Grade teacher has been incorrectly fixed both by the Committee of Management and incorrectly being given due regard by the District Inspector of Schools, Deoria He contends that there is an error apparent on the face of the record and his seniority ought to be fixed in reference to the substantive appointments which he has been given either in the present grade or in the previous grade. He has taken the court through the various records which is also appended along with the petition. The original record upon being summoned is before the court and in the possession of the learned Chief Standing Counsel, U. P. who has appeared on behalf of the respondent nos. 1 and 2, that is to say, the District Inspector of Sohools, Deoria and the Deputy Director of Education (VII) Region, Gorakhpur.

(2.) FROM the record it Is clear that there is an error and this aspect, as It Is a matter of record, is accepted to the learned Chief Standing Counsel. FROM the seniority list prepared by the institution as on 9 July, 1991, the petitioner has been recorded at serial no. 12 and Prabhu Nath Ral. the respondent no 3 at serial no. 1. The petitioner had done his B. Ed. course in 1975 whereas Prabhu Nath Rai has done his High School in 1975 Implying thereby that whereas the petitioner could have the status of a C. T. grade teacher in the year 1975. the aforesaid respondent did not even have the qualifications beyond High School. The aforesaid respondent did his B.Ed, course in 1982 which the petitioner had already done in 1975. This further implies that which teacher would be recognised to have the status of a L. T. grade teacher as from the time when he bad successfully been conferred the status of a C. T. grade teacher, as a matter of record, on this there is no issue. This record has not been denied by the State respondents.
