Mrinal Kanti Kamar & Ors vs The State Of West Bengal & Ors on 19 May, 2017
This was noted by the
Supreme Court in the case of Dhananjoy Karmakar v. State of West Bengal
& Ors. reported in 2016 (1) CLJ (SC) 63. The appointments of the writ
petitioners can be said to be regular. Since that they were the genuine
organising teachers of the school, the state should have recognised their posts
while upgrading the school. In fact in this situations the school at its very
inception was outside the purview of the West Bengal School Service
Commission Act, 1997, in as much as it could not be said that it had any
vacancy. If any post has fallen vacant at any later point of time after
upgradation of the school to class X it should be filled up in accordance with
the said two pieces of legislation of 1997 and 2005.
