High<\/p>\n<p>School, Kayakkodi during 1994-1995 in a post sanctioned by the District<\/p>\n<p>Educational Officer in the same year itself. But the approval was rejected<\/p>\n<p>on the ground that the post has to be filled up by a protected teacher. This<\/p>\n<p>was challenged in O.P. No.5139\/1996 and pursuant to the directions issued<\/p>\n<p>by this Court, the appointment was approved.\n<\/p>\n<p>      2. In the year 1996-1997 the Deputy Director of Education cancelled<\/p>\n<p>the post on the ground that as per the Govt. Orders in force, there should be<\/p>\n<p>26 periods for sanctioning additional posts in the school. The petitioner<\/p>\n<p>challenged the same by a representation before the Government. Ext.P4 is<\/p>\n<p>the final order passed by the Government. This was challenged by the<\/p>\n<p>petitioner before this court and the writ petition was allowed. Ext.P6 is the<\/p>\n<p>judgment of the Division Bench in W.A. No.275\/2004                   dismissing the<\/p>\n<p>appeal filed by the respondents.                By Ext.P7 judgment in O.P.<\/p>\n<p>NO.13660\/2001 this Court directed the Government to take a decision on<\/p>\n<p>the representation filed by the petitioner and thereafter Ext.P9 order has<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">wpc 27040\/2007                        2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>been passed rejecting the claim which is under challenge in this writ<\/p>\n<p>petition.\n<\/p>\n<p>      3.    The main ground on which the sanction is refused, is that<\/p>\n<p>sufficient periods are not available from          1997-1998 onwards to<\/p>\n<p>accommodate the petitioner.\n<\/p>\n<p>      4. The petitioner has raised various grounds to challenge the orders<\/p>\n<p>in question. The petitioner is relying upon a recent decision of this Court<\/p>\n<p>in <a href=\"\/doc\/1349533\/\">Satheeshkumar v. State of Kerala<\/a> (2009 (3) KLT 439) wherein the<\/p>\n<p>same question was examined in detail. Regarding the sanctioning of posts of<\/p>\n<p>drawing and music teachers, it was held in para 13 thus:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>        &#8220;Therefore, a High School is entitled to have one full time post each<\/p>\n<p>        in these three different subjects irrespective of the number of<\/p>\n<p>        periods. The same cannot be denied by resort to the third proviso.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The scope of the three provisos have also been examined in detail in<\/p>\n<p>paragraphs 14 and 15. It was held that what is envisaged under the proviso<\/p>\n<p>is only sanctioning of a second post in the Art Group, i.e. Music Teacher or<\/p>\n<p>a post in the Craft Group.\n<\/p>\n<p>      5. Learned Govt. Pleader relied upon an unreported decision in W.A.<\/p>\n<p>No.908\/1994 and connected case to contend that the sanctioning of post is<\/p>\n<p>dependent upon the number of periods. That was a case where the post of<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">wpc 27040\/2007                         3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>music teacher was abolished on the ground that sufficient number of periods<\/p>\n<p>were not available.     For music post, there were only nine periods in<\/p>\n<p>standards VIII and IX and accordingly the post was abolished.            The<\/p>\n<p>Division Bench was of the view that since there is already one post of<\/p>\n<p>drawing teacher in the Art Group        in high school section, the periods<\/p>\n<p>available do not require sanction of post of music teacher in addition to the<\/p>\n<p>post.\n<\/p>\n<p>      6. The petitioner is relying upon a decision of an earlier Division<\/p>\n<p>Bench in Ext.P6 regarding the interpretation of Rule 6(4) of Chapter XXIII<\/p>\n<p>KER. The clause introduced as per the Govt. Order dated 28.10.1995 and<\/p>\n<p>the third proviso are the same. While considering the effect of Rule 6(4), it<\/p>\n<p>was held thus by the Division Bench in Ext.P6 judgment:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>             &#8220;Rule 6(4) mandates that in every high school there shall be one<\/p>\n<p>      full time post of music teacher irrespective of the number of periods of<\/p>\n<p>      work per week for music. In the light of this statutory provision the<\/p>\n<p>      Govt. Order which runs counter to it could not be given effect to.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In W.A. No.908\/1994 the effect of the statutory provisions has not been<\/p>\n<p>considered in detail. In fact in the decision in Satheeshkumar&#8217;s case 2009<\/p>\n<p>(3) KLT 439) the entire statutory scheme has been considered and the effect<\/p>\n<p>of the provisos was also considered. Ext.P6 judgment of the Division<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">wpc 27040\/2007                         4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Bench gives an interpretation of Rule 6(4) of Chapter XXIII K.E.R. Since<\/p>\n<p>those aspects have not been considered in W.A. No.908\/1994, the same is<\/p>\n<p>distinguishable especially as the decision turned upon the facts of the said<\/p>\n<p>case. Therefore, the contention of the learned Govt. Pleader is rejected.<\/p>\n<p>The view taken in Satheeshkumar&#8217;s case (2009 (3) KLT 439) is in tune<\/p>\n<p>with Ext.P6 judgment of the Division Bench.\n<\/p>\n<p>      7. Therefore, the writ petition is allowed. Ext.P9 is quashed. Since a<\/p>\n<p>post of music teacher is allowable in terms of Rule 6 (4) of Chapter XXIII<\/p>\n<p>K.E.R. irrespective of the number of periods, there will be a direction to the<\/p>\n<p>respondents to approve the appointment of the petitioner and grant<\/p>\n<p>appropriate benefits. Orders in this regard shall be passed within a period of<\/p>\n<p>three months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. No costs.<\/p>\n<p>            `<\/p>\n<p>                                     (T.R.
