CORAM: ANIL L. PANSARE AND
SIDDHESHWAR SUNDARRAO THOMBRE, JJ.
DATED : 08th SEPTEMBER, 2025 Heard.
2. One of the prayers is that the petitioners are entitled to receive salary for the period during which they were out of employment. When inquired, learned APP submits that instructions are awaiting on this point.
3. It is surprising that the petition is filed in the year 2018 with the aforesaid prayer (Writ Petition No.3696/2018) is awaiting instructions on this point.
4. Another prayer is that the petitioners are entitled for absorption in any other school run by the State Government.
5. Learned APP submits that some of the petitioners are absorbed and order of absorption is being issued.
6. Thus, the prayer which was made in the year 2018 is being dealt with in the aforesaid manner, in the sense, the eligible petitioners are being absorbed at the whims of the respondent.
7. Yet another prayer is made to quash and set- aside impugned order dated 04.02.2021.
8. Learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that the respondents made an attempt to terminate the services of the petitioner by introducing Government Resolution dated 13.05.2022. The said Resolution has been challenged to which there has been no response. Thereafter, yet another Government Resolution dated 6 01-WP-3696-2018 + CON.odt 08.10.2024 came to be issued. By this Government Resolution, the Government has introduced a condition to secure qualification of D.Ed for those who have applied for the post of Secondary School Teacher and those who applied for Primary Teacher are called upon to secure qualification of B.Ed. In addition the salary of appointed teachers have been allegedly reduced to lumpsum amount of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty Five Thousand Only). The justification is still awaiting.
9. The grievance is that the Secretary of School Education and Sports Department (Respondent No.2) and Director (Primary) of Commissionrate of Private Education (Respondent No.3) are continuously acting in arbitrary manner. They are not responding to learned APP's call. The respondent Nos.2 and 3 shall, therefore, remain present before the Court either on V.C. or personally.
10. List the petition on 15.09.2025.
