IN THE HIGH COURT OF ALLAHABAD
B. Dikshit, J.
MAITHALI SHARAN KARAN - Appellant
Versus
COMMITTEE OF MANAGEMENT, CHRISTIAN INTERMEDIATE COLLAGE - Respondents
Civil Misc. Writ Petition 23324 Of 1990
Decided On : 09/06/1996
Mandamus - Minority Institution - Appointment Dispute
Fact of the Case:
The petitioner sought a mandamus to prevent the Committee of Management of a minority institution from conducting interviews for the post of Physical Director and to appoint the petitioner as an L.T. Grade teacher under a specific quota.
Finding of the Court:
The court found that the institution being a minority institution was not subject to the U.P. Secondary Education Service Commission and Selection Board Act or the Regulations framed under the U.P. Intermediate Education Act. Therefore, the petitioner's claim for promotion under a specific quota was not valid, and the petition was dismissed.
Issues: Dispute over appointment and promotion in a minority institution.
Ratio Decidendi: The court relied on a previous Division Bench decision to establish that the petitioner had no right to claim promotion under a specific quota in the minority institution, leading to the dismissal of the petition.
Final Decision: The writ petition was dismissed, and the interim order was vacated.
( 1 ) BY this petition the petitioner has sought a direction in the nature of mandamus commanding the Committee of Management Christian Intermediate College, Mainpuri (in short institution)not to hold interview of the post Physical Director in the institution and to appoint the petitioner under 40 per cent quota as L. T. Grade teacher to the subject of Arts. Admittedly, the institution is a minority institution and in view of judgment of Division Bench of this Court, against which the Counsel for petitioner is unable to show me anything, U. P. Secondary Education Service commission and Selection Board Act nor Regulation of Chapter II, of Regulations framed under u. P. Intermediate Education Act is applicable this institution (See Civil Misc. Writ Petition No. 9776/1984, decided on 31 -8-1984, N. B. Lal v. District Inspector of Schools, In view of aforesaid Division Bench decision the petitioner cannot claim that the post is to be filed up by promoting him against 40 per cent quota. As the petitioner has no right to seek filling up of the post by promotion, he can neither get the relief for mandamus nor the prayer for not holding interview to the post of Physical Director at the institution.
( 2 ) THE writ petition fails and is dismissed in limine. Interim order dated 7-9-1990 is vacated.
