JUDGMENT
Heard Sri.Rajesh, the learned counsel for the petitioner, Sri.
Sri.N.B.Sunil Nath, the learned Government Pleader, as well as Sri.Sasthamangalam Ajith Kumar, the learned Senior Counsel for the 5th respondent.
2. The 1st petitioner is the Manager of the school and the 2nd petitioner is the Head Teacher appointed by the 1st petitioner in the school. The short issue arising for consideration is as to whether the 1st petitioner is justified in appointing the 2nd petitioner as the Head Teacher, as against the claim made by the 5th respondent herein. Admittedly, the 5th respondent has retired from the service on 31.05.2025. By the impugned order at Ext.P10, the 1st petitioner has been directed to appoint the 5th respondent as the Head Teacher. However, status quo as regards the appointment of the 2nd petitioner is being continued.
3. In the meantime, as noticed earlier, the 5th respondent has retired from service on 31.05.2025.
