By this order, the Basic Shiksha Adhikari has declined to grant approval on the action of the management to terminate the services of the Head Mistress, Smt. Sudha Arora.

(2.) APPARENTLY, the management suspended the Head Mistress, put her under charges, made an enquiry and passed an order suspending her services, as, according to the management, the charges against her stood proved. Some of the charges related to financial irregularities, on which an allegation has been made against the Head Mistress, Smt. Sudha Arora,

(3.) THE Basic Shiksha Adhikari, further, was of the view that the question was not of the withdrawal of Rs. 11,968.00 by the Head Mistress, because if that was, the management has to explain how this money came in the account of the School. Nothing Was available on record on the source from which the money was credited to the account of the School. In reference to Glass IX and X being run by the Head Mistress, the Basic Shiksha Adhikari was of the view that no report had been sent by the management of this irregularity and it would not be appropriate Co hold the Head Mistress responsible for running these classes, implying thereby that both the management and the Head Mistress could be at fault.
