It is also submitted that <\/p>\n<p>    pursuant   to   the   permission   granted   by   respondent   no.2,   selection <\/p>\n<p>    process   was   initiated   by   the   petitioners,   and   accordingly,   Shaikh <\/p>\n<p>    Chiragoddin Kamroddin was selected and he came to be appointed <\/p>\n<p>    on 21.6.2007 for the period of three years in petitioner no.2 school <\/p>\n<p>    and thereafter abruptly respondent no.2 issued the communication <\/p>\n<p>    dated 24.4.2009 and canceled the same in response to the proposal <\/p>\n<p>    of approval sent  by the petitioners, having no rationale therefor, and <\/p>\n<p>    therefore,   submitted   that   the   said   impugned   communication   dated <\/p>\n<p>    24.4.2009 deserves to be quashed and set aside.\n<\/p>\n<p>    15           Respondent no.2 filed affidavit in reply, which is sworn in <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                                        ::: Downloaded on &#8211; 09\/06\/2013 16:32:10 :::<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                                9<\/span><\/p>\n<p>    by Ramesh Gulab Jaiswal, presently working as Superintendent in <\/p>\n<p>    the office of Education Officer (Secondary), Zilla Parishad, Jalgaon <\/p>\n<p>    and thereby narrated the afore said facts and opposed the present <\/p>\n<p>    petition.\n<\/p>\n<p>    16           Learned A.G.P. appearing for the respondents canvassed <\/p>\n<p>    that   Mohammad   Haroon,   who   was   originally   serving   as   Assistant <\/p>\n<p>    Teacher and who was rendered surplus, was absorbed in petitioner <\/p>\n<p>    no.2 school run by petitioner no.1 Management on 1.12.1997 and <\/p>\n<p>    since then he was serving with the petitioners.  However, in the year <\/p>\n<p>    2007, one vacancy arose in Anglo Urdu High School, Chalisgaon, <\/p>\n<p>    and therefore, said Mohammad Haroon applied for repatriation to his <\/p>\n<p>    parent   school,   and   hence,     respondent   no.2   by   order   dated <\/p>\n<p>    23.4.2007   directed  that  Mohammad   Haroon  be   repatriated     to  his <\/p>\n<p>    parent   school,   and   accordingly,   he   was   relieved   by   the   petitioner <\/p>\n<p>    Institution on 5.5.2007. However, it is submitted that Anglo Urdu High <\/p>\n<p>    School, Chalisgaon had not re-absorbed  him, and hence,  petitioner <\/p>\n<p>    Institution   was   directed     to   continue   to   draw   his   salary   from   their <\/p>\n<p>    estiblishment until said Mohammad Haroon was absorbed by Anglo <\/p>\n<p>    Urdu High School, Chalisgaon.\n<\/p>\n<p>    17           It   is   further   submitted   that   in   the   mean   while,   due   to <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                                           ::: Downloaded on &#8211; 09\/06\/2013 16:32:10 :::<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                            10<\/span><\/p>\n<p>    repatriation   of   Mohammad   Haroon,   the   petitioner   applied   to <\/p>\n<p>    respondent no.2 seeking permission to fill up the vacancy arose due <\/p>\n<p>    to   repatriation   of   Mohammad   Haroon,   and   accordingly,   said <\/p>\n<p>    permission   was   granted   assuming   Mohammad   Haroon   would   be <\/p>\n<p>    reabsorbed by his parent school.   However, it is further submitted <\/p>\n<p>    that   since   Mohammad   Haroon   was   not   accommodated   by   Anglo <\/p>\n<p>    Urdu High School, Chalisgaon, petitioner Institution was directed to <\/p>\n<p>    draw his salary from their establishment until such re-absorption.  It <\/p>\n<p>    is   further   submitted   that   mean   while   the   petitioner   proceeded   to <\/p>\n<p>    appoint   Shaikh Chiragoddin Kamroddin as Assistant Teacher in the <\/p>\n<p>    vacancy  which arose, if Mohammad Haroon was  absorbed  by his <\/p>\n<p>    parent school.  Hence, learned A.G.P. for the respondents submitted <\/p>\n<p>    that since the salary of Mohammad Haroon was being drawn from <\/p>\n<p>    the   establishment   of   petitioner   Institution,   the   approval   to   the <\/p>\n<p>    appointment   of       Shaikh   Chiragoddin   Kamroddin     as   Assistant <\/p>\n<p>    Teacher could not be granted by respondent no.2 for want of vacant <\/p>\n<p>    post.   It is further submitted by learned A.G.P. for the respondents <\/p>\n<p>    that ultimately Mohammad Haroon was absorbed in Anglo Urdu High <\/p>\n<p>    School, Chalisgaon on 17.3.2009.   Accordingly, learned A.G.P. for <\/p>\n<p>    the   respondents   submitted   that   pursuant   to   the   proposal   by   the <\/p>\n<p>    petitioner Management, respondent no.2 is ready to grant approval <\/p>\n<p>    to   the   appointment   of   Shaikh   Chiragoddin   Kamroddin   from <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                                       ::: Downloaded on &#8211; 09\/06\/2013 16:32:10 :::<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                            11<\/span><\/p>\n<p>    18.3.2009.\n<\/p>\n<p>    CONSIDERATION  :-\n<\/p>\n<p>    18           We have perused the contents of the present petition, its <\/p>\n<p>    annexures, contents of the affidavit in reply filed by the respondents <\/p>\n<p>    and   the   impugned   communication   dated   24.4.2009   issued   by <\/p>\n<p>    respondent  no.2  and heard  the  submissions  advanced  by  learned <\/p>\n<p>    counsel   for   the   petitioners   and   the   learned   A.G.P.   for   the <\/p>\n<p>    respondents anxiously, and at the out set, it is important to note that <\/p>\n<p>    the petitioners sought permission by letter dated 18.5.2007 sent to <\/p>\n<p>    respondent no.2 to fill up the vacant post, which arose on account of <\/p>\n<p>    promotion of Shaikh Nuroddin Gaffar, and in pursuance of the said <\/p>\n<p>    letter, respondent no.2 granted permission to the petitioners to fill up <\/p>\n<p>    the   said   post   after   publication   of   advertisement   by   letter   dated <\/p>\n<p>    25.5.2007  which  came to  be filled in  after  completion  of selection <\/p>\n<p>    process as afore said by appointing Shaikh Chiragoddin Kamroddin <\/p>\n<p>    by appointment letter dated 21.6.2007 and  it is material to note that <\/p>\n<p>    respondent   no.2   did   not   grant   said   permission   on   account   of <\/p>\n<p>    repatriation of Mohammad Haroon to his parent school.   Moreover, <\/p>\n<p>    the  respondent no.2 did not grant the said permission to petitioners <\/p>\n<p>    by letter dated 25.5.2007 on the assumption that Mohammad Haroon <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                                       ::: Downloaded on &#8211; 09\/06\/2013 16:32:10 :::<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                               12<\/span><\/p>\n<p>    would be re-absorbed by his parent school, as canvassed by learned <\/p>\n<p>    A.G.P. for  the  respondents  and  there  is  no  substance  in the  said <\/p>\n<p>    arguments advanced by the  learned A.G.P. for the respondents.  In <\/p>\n<p>    substance, the appointment of   Shaikh Chiragoddin Kamroddin   as <\/p>\n<p>    Assistant Teacher was on the vacant post which was   created on <\/p>\n<p>    account of promotion of  Shaikh Nuroddin Gaffar and not on account <\/p>\n<p>    of repatriation of Mohammad Haroon and his alleged re-absorption to <\/p>\n<p>    his parent school, and the argument advanced by learned A.G.P. for <\/p>\n<p>    the respondents is misconceived in that respect, and therefore, there <\/p>\n<p>    is no connection between the appointment of   Shaikh Chiragoddin <\/p>\n<p>    Kamroddin   on 21.6.2007 and alleged re-absorption of Mohammad <\/p>\n<p>    Haroon to his parent school on 18.3.2009 on his repatriation.\n<\/p>\n<p>    19           Besides that although it is stated by respondent no.2 in <\/p>\n<p>    his affidavit in reply that Mohammad Haroon was directed to be re-\n<\/p>\n<p>    absorbed   in   his   parent   school   by   the   repatriation   order   dated <\/p>\n<p>    23.9.2007,  his  parent  school  Anglo Urdu High School, Chalisgaon <\/p>\n<p>    did   not   re-absorb   him   as   per   the   said   order   till     18.3.2009,   but <\/p>\n<p>    pertinently,   affidavit   in   reply   filed   by   respondent   no.2   is   silent <\/p>\n<p>    regarding   any   action   taken   by   respondent   no.2   against   the   said <\/p>\n<p>    parent school of Mohammad Haroon and respondent no.2 has not <\/p>\n<p>    given   any   justification   for   the   said   inaction,   nor   the   action   of <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                                          ::: Downloaded on &#8211; 09\/06\/2013 16:32:10 :::<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                           13<\/span><\/p>\n<p>    respondent   no.2   of   issuance   of     impugned   communication   dated <\/p>\n<p>    24.4.2009,   canceling   already   granted   permission   by   letter   dated <\/p>\n<p>    25.5.2007, can be justified.     Moreover, it is significant to note that <\/p>\n<p>    there   is   no   whisper   in   the   letter   dated   25.5.2007   issued   by <\/p>\n<p>    respondent no.2 to the petitioners that  permission to fill up the post <\/p>\n<p>    of  Shikshan Sevak was granted by letter dated 18.5.2007  because <\/p>\n<p>    of   repatriation   of   Mohammad   Haroon,   and   such   reason   given   by <\/p>\n<p>    respondent no.2 in the impugned communication dated 24.4.2009, <\/p>\n<p>    i.e. after almost two years, is without any basis and foundation, and <\/p>\n<p>    hence, the said impugned communication deserves to be quashed <\/p>\n<p>    and  set aside.\n<\/p>\n<p>    20          In the circumstances, we are of the considered view that <\/p>\n<p>    there is no substance in the arguments canvassed by the learned <\/p>\n<p>    A.G.P. for  the  respondents     and  the action  of respondent  no.2  of <\/p>\n<p>    issuance of impugned communication dated 24.4.2009 is apparently <\/p>\n<p>    arbitrary, and therefore, same deserves to be quashed and set aside.\n<\/p>\n<p>    Moreover, since Shaikh Chiragoddin Kamroddin   has been working <\/p>\n<p>    with petitioner no.2 school since 21.6.2007 as per appointment letter <\/p>\n<p>    dated 21.6.2007, the respondent no.2 is required to be directed to <\/p>\n<p>    grant   approval   to   the   said   appointment   of   Shaikh   Chiragoddin <\/p>\n<p>    Kamroddin   from the date of his appointment i.e. 21.6.2007, which <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                                     ::: Downloaded on &#8211; 09\/06\/2013 16:32:10 :::<\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                            14<\/span><\/p>\n<p>    shall subserve the interest of justice.\n<\/p>\n<p>    21           In   the   result,   present   petition   succeeds   and   same   is <\/p>\n<p>    allowed in terms of prayer clauses &#8216;B&#8217; and &#8216;C&#8217; thereof.
