Imphal, June 12 2015 :
The High Court of Manipur on Friday delivered a judgment quashing and setting aside the order of the state level selection committee of DPC of the Khergao Junior High School (aided) Khetrigao, Imphal East zone.
The writ petition was filed by one Basirjan Begum who is the senior most teacher of the Khergao Junior School (aided) in the month of February challenging the order of the ZEO Zone II by which one assistant teacher Md Ferozuddin was proposed for appointment as graduate teacher in the state level selection committee leaving behind the said Basirian Begum who is the most qualified for the said graduate post.
The petitioner said it is unfair and unjust as she had been waiting for the graduate post since 2003 when she was qualified and the proposed Md Ferozuddin is very much junior to her and absented himself from the school from June 16, 2012 to till date.
He was illegally proposed by the then school managing committee under the undue influence of his sister who was secretary of the said committee.
The petitioner said that justice has been met at last.
The petitioner had been fighting the legal battle since 2011 relating to her appointment to the graduate post whenever vacancy arose.
She further said that one graduate post has been lying vacant since May 31 2012 in the Khergao Junior High School (aided) due to superannuation of one graduate teacher.
However, to fill up the vacant post, only the said Md Ferozuddin was proposed without considering the case of the petitioner in the order dated January 27 last.
