(2.) THIS writ petition has been filed by the petitioners challenging the validity and correctness of the order dated 31.7.2008 passed by the District Inspector of Schools, Kaushambi which has been appended as Annexure -1 to the writ petition. By this order the DIOS, Kaushambi has directed that respondent No. 5, Sri Rashid Ahmad Khan who was working as ad -hoc lecturer in the college in question be appointed as Principal pursuant to selection by way of direct recruitment in pursuance to advertisement No. 1 of 2002.

(3.) THE contention of learned Counsel for the petitioners is that respondent No. 5 was not eligible for consideration of the post of Principal as he was not a permanent lecturer and that the Committee of Management had not forwarded his name to the Selection Board under Chapter II Regulation 6 of the Regulations framed under the U.P. Intermediate Education Act. Chapter II Regulation 6 of the Regulations provides that the post of Principal is to be filled up by a permanent lecturer and not by ad hoc lecturer.
