This civil writ petition has been filed under Article 226/227 of the Constitution of India praying for issuance of a writ in the nature of mandamus directing the respondents to issue appointment letter to the petitioner.
In the petition, it has been pleaded that in response to advertisement dated 21.10.2006 inviting applications for filling the post of Punjabi Lecturer, the petitioner applied. After going through the selection process, the CWP No.5488 of 2009 [2] petitioner was selected. Letter of appointment, however, has not been issued.
Learned counsel for the respondents, from the affidavit of Smt. Harcharanjit Kaur Brar, Director of Public
Instructions (SE) Punjab, on behalf of respondent Nos.1 and 2, filed in Court today and taken on record, states that appointment letter has been issued to the petitioner that has been placed on record as Annexure R-1 and is dated 22.6.2009.
Learned counsel for the respondents further states that order of posting shall be given within 15 days from today.
Learned counsel states that consequential benefits would be given to the petitioner in accordance with rules, except
salary for the period for which the petitioner has not worked.
In view of the above, the matter has been rendered as infructuous and is disposed of as such.
