Mr. Prashant S. Bhavake for the Petitioner.

Mr.Umesh H. Pawar for the petitioner in WP St 33357/18 and WP St 33509/18.

CORAM: SMT. BHARATI H.DANGRE, JJ.

(Vacation Court) DATED : 26th DECEMBER, 2018 P.C:- In a group of petitions, the petitioners have approached this Court seeking direction to the Education Ofcer to decide the proposal submitted by the Head of the Institutions in which they are working, seeking individual approval for their appointment as Shikshan Sevak. The petitioners are apprehensive that while the proposal is pending, the Education Ofcer may place other surplus teacher on the post which they are occupying and in respect of which approval is sought from the competent authority.

Mr.Bhavake invites my attention to a Division Bench order in Writ Petition dated 3rd December 2018.

7/8 502 WP-33884-18-GROUP (Modified).doc In the said matter, this Court had recorded the statement of the learned AGP that the proposals which are pending would be decided fnally by 31st January 2019. The said statement was accepted as an undertaking to the Court and it was also recorded that the proposals be listed seratium and decided so that individual petitioners and the managements are not constrained to approach this Court and add to its pendency. The Court also expressed that the State of Maharashtra would issue appropriate guidelines regarding the manner in which the proposals would be processed, scrutinized and decisions would be taken in the end of Academic Sessions i.e. 31st March 2019. In the backdrop of the order passed on 3rd December 2018, the petitioners also need protection of the same order and the petitions deserve to be disposed of with a direction to the Education Ofcer to decide the proposal in view of the specifc undertaking by learned AGP of the Division Bench in Writ Petition No.9725 of 2018 that all the pending proposals would

8/8 502 WP-33884-18-GROUP (Modified).doc be taken up seratium by Education Ofcer and decided by a deadline of 31st March 2019. In such circumstances, the proposal of the petitioner is directed to be decided by Education Ofcer in light of the undertaking given to this Court in Writ Petition No.9725 of 2018.

As long as the proposal is pending and fnal decision is taken on the said proposal, the respective Education Ofcer is directed not to post any surplus candidate. However, if the decision goes adverse to the petitioners in the next academic session, the Education Ofcer would be at liberty to fll in the said post by absorbing the surplus teachers on the said post.

List the matter on 15th February 2019.

(SMT. BHARATI H. DANGRE, J.)
