MAYA DEVI Vs. D I O S JALAUN

JUDGEMENT

(1.) A. Chakrabarti, J. The present writ petition was filed contending inter alias that Rajendra Kumar Shukla, the husband of the petitioner, an Assistant teacher in Adarsh Junior High School, Mai, Jalaun died on 3-12-1993 while in service leaving behind him the petitioner and four minor heirs, being daughters and sons. The petitioner who has passed class VIII filed appli cation on 6-12-1993 for appointment on compassionate ground. Tae Manager of the institution by letter dated 16-12-1993 informed the petitioner that since she is not graduate and has not done B. Ed. , she cannot be appointed as Assistant teacher in the institution (Annexure-6 to the writ petition ). The District Inspector of Schools did not take any action. The petitioner contends that the institution since having recognized and brought within the purview of the Intermediate Education Act, the Regulations 101 to Iu7 automatically become applicable and the District Inspector of Schools is required to consider and decide to question of appointment of the petitioner on compassionate ground. In the circumstances, the petitioner has filed the present writ peti tions and has moved the same on 1-3-1994.

(2.) IN spite of direction, no counter-affidavit has been filed. The learned standing counsel prays for further time to file counter affidavit but as the case involves appointment on compassionate ground and long time has passed since the earlier direction was given for filing counter-affidavit, I dispose of the present writ petition upon hearing the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing counsel,

(3.) IT has also been held repeatedly as also in the aforesaid case of Naveen Kumar Upadhyay that in case dependent of deceased is qualified for being appointed as Class III employee, then it would be contrary to rule to appoint said person on Class IV post.
