2. This intra Court appeal is directed against the judgment and order of the Hon’ble Single Judge dated 9th October, 2007, whereby writ petition No. 49367 of 2007 filed by the appellant has been dismissed after recording that the controversy raised in the writ petition is covered by the Judgment of this Court in the case of Committee of Management, Devraha Baba Inter College and others v.

3. Challenging the judgment and order of the Hon’ble Single Judge, learned counsel for the appellant contends that the power to make amendments in the scheme of administration has been conferred under Section 16-A (5) of the U.P. Intermediate
