JUDGMENT - SIRPURKAR V.S., J.:---These two petitions were disposed of on 10th June, 1997 and the orders impugned therein passed by the School Tribunal were set aside and the appeals filed by the respondent-teachers were directed to be dismissed. The order was declared in the open Court. Following are the reasons in support of the same.

2. Petitioner No. 1 in both the petitions is an Education Society registered under the Societies Registration Act and runs a school which is represented herein by the Head Master and is impleaded as petitioner No. 2. Respondent No. 1 in Writ Petition No. 3505 of 1993 is one Shyam Maroti Bhasarkar, a teacher working in petitioner No. 2/School at Ballarpur, District Chandrapur, while respondent No. 1 in Writ Petition No. 3508 of 1993 is one Shri P. K. Pandhare, also a teacher working in the same school. Since the controversy is common to both these teachers, both the petitions were heard simultaneously and were disposed of also.

3. Separate charge-sheets were filed against these two respondent/teachers by the management of the petitioner/School. As many as ten charges were levelled against both these teachers/respondents. Charges are practically common.
