(1.) THE petitioners have challenged the order dated 15th September. 1994 passed by District Basic Education Officer, Lalitpur cancelling the appointment of 82 candidates who had applied for the post of Assistant Teacher in basic school maintained by U. P. Basic Education Board.
(2.) I have heard learned counsel for the petitioner and Sri K. S. Shukla for the respondent.
(3.) LEARNED Counsel for the petitioners submitted that petitioners had been given appointment letters and they have joined the institution at the place of their postings. In case there was any illegality in the appointment order or certain procedure was not followed, the petitioners should have been given opportunity of hearing LEARNED counsel for the respondent contended that as the procedure for making appointment was not followed the appointment order was itself void-ab-initio.
