Arun Dev Choudhury, J.
1. The present Intra-court appeal is filed against the impugned judgment and order (oral) dated 01.12.2023, passed by the learned Single Judge in WP(C) No.6147/2022.
2. The respondents had challenged the orders dated 29.09.2015, 07.07.2022 and 25.07.2022 passed by the Director of Elementary Education, Assam and the Mission Director, Samagra Siksha, Assam, respectively, by which the claim for the provincialisation of the respondents was rejected.
3. The learned Single Judge interfered with the decision and directed that the petitioners would be entitled to provincialisation under the Assam Venture Educational Institutions (Provincialisation of Services) Act, 2011, and, consequently, held that they would be entitled to salaries for the said period.
