Dated this the 2nd day of April, 2008
JUDGMENT
The petitioner aspires for promotion to the post of Professor.
The same has been rejected on the ground that he lacks the required
experience. Petitioner submits that the experience prescribed as per
Rules is 10 years and that the petitioner has 11 years, 4 months and
20 days of experience as on 20.10.2005. Detailing this, the petitioner
has filed Ext.P7 before the 2nd respondent Vice Chancellor of the
University. Petitioner now seeks a direction to the Vice Chancellor to
consider and pass orders on Ext.P7 expeditiously.
2. I have heard the standing counsel appearing for the
University also. In the facts and circumstances of the case, there
would be a direction to the 2nd respondent to consider and pass orders
on Ext.P7 as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within one month
from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment after affording an
opportunity of being heard to the petitioner. The petitioner shall
produce a copy of this judgment along with a certified copy of the writ
petition before the 2nd respondent for compliance.
The writ petition is disposed of as above.
S.SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE
