The petitioner has been selected against the said post by the U.P. Secondary Education Services Selection Board. Accordingly, the panel was intimated to the District Inspector of Schools, Bahraich. The District Inspector of Schools, Bahraich by means of his order dated 29th March, 2006 has stated that a teacher appointed to teach Physics in the institution has filed a writ petition before the Lucknow Bench of this Court and has obtained an interim order, therefore, petitioner cannot be offered appointment against the post for which he has been recommended. It is against this order that the present writ petition has been filed. 3. This Court by means of order dated 28.7.2006 required the District Inspector of Schools, Bahraich to remain present before this Court with all relevant records inasmuch as complete details were not indicated in letter dated 29.3.2006. 4. Today the District Inspector of Schools, Bahraich has produced a copy of the writ petition filed before the Lucknow Bench by Sri Deepak Kumar Tiwari as well as copy of the order passed therein. It is worthwhile to reproduce paragraph 5, 6, 7 and 12 of the said writ petition, which read as follows : “5. That since 9.10.1986 their existence and prohibition against sanction of additional post in privately managed recognized aided Higher Secondary Schools in the State of U. P. that as a consequence of the aforesaid prohibition even though over the preceding 17 years there has been a tremendous increase in the students a strength and consequently the number of approved sections in each of the aforesaid institution, no additional post have been sanctioned by the State Government for meeting the additional teaching requirement on account of the increases student strength. 6. That in order to meet the aforesaid eventuality the State Government issued a Government order dated 11.10.1999 making alternative arrangement for meeting additional teaching requirement in such educational institutions, on account of sanction of additional section, but no additional posts have not been sanctioned/created. 6. That in order to meet the aforesaid eventuality the State Government issued a Government order dated 11.10.1999 making alternative arrangement for meeting additional teaching requirement in such educational institutions, on account of sanction of additional section, but no additional posts have not been sanctioned/created. The true copy of the Government Order dated 11.10.1999 is being annexed herewith as Annexure 2 to this writ petition. 7. That the Government Order dated 11.10.1999 envisages the creation of a pool of subject expert in each of the religion of the state for meeting additional teaching requirement in such educational institution. 12. That since the petitioner’s appointment has been made as Subject Expert Physics for intermediate classes and in pursuance of appointment, the petitioner is teaching Physics subject in Inter classes and the petitioner is also working as per time table of the college all the works indicated or directed by Principal of the college like invigilation works, Supervision work during course of examination half yearly or annually board and the petitioner has received all remuneration checking of the copies of U.P. Board Examination, meaning thereby the petitioner is performing all the duties as other regular lecturers of the college are performing, there is no dis-similarity in the working of petitioner with other lecturers." 5. Reference has also been made to paragraph 29 of the writ petition to an interim order passed by the Lucknow Bench whereby it has been directed that the Subject Experts may not be replaced by any other candidate. 6. It may further be recorded that appointment of such Subject Expert was limited to three years initially and thereafter it was provided that fresh recruitment may be made on the post of Subject Expert. This part of fixed term appointment was challenged by means of Writ Petition No. 6319 of 2003 before the Lucknow Bench as well as by means of Writ Petition No. 35653 of 2003 before this Court. The writ petitions were allowed and it was provided that termination of employment of Subject Expert merely on expiry of prescribed period is legally not justified. 7. In view of the aforesaid facts, Lucknow Bench of this Court has granted an interim order in favour of Deepak Kumar Tiwari. The order reads as follows : “Heard learned Counsel for the parties. Let a counter affidavit be filed within a month. 7. In view of the aforesaid facts, Lucknow Bench of this Court has granted an interim order in favour of Deepak Kumar Tiwari. The order reads as follows : “Heard learned Counsel for the parties. Let a counter affidavit be filed within a month. Rejoinder affidavit, if any, may be filed within two weeks thereafter. Issue notice to opposite party No. 5. List along with writ petition No. 8275(SS)/05 and other connected matters. As per learned Counsel for the petitioner, in the matters of similarly situated candidates interim orders have been granted by this Court, are annexed with copies of such order in this petition. In view of above, it is provided that the petitioner shall be allowed to continue as Physics Lecturer/Subject Expert in Mahraj Singh Inter College, Bahraich and he shall be paid salary.” 8. From the order so passed, it is apparent that the State Authorities have been restrained from interfering in the continuance of Sri Deepak Kumar Tiwari as Subject Expert. 9. From the facts noticed herein above, this Court is satisfied that the interim order passed by the Lucknow Bench has to be read in context with the relief prayed for in the writ petition and facts stated therein. From the records it is established that Sri Deepak Kumar Tiwari has not claimed appointment against substantive post of Lecturer Physics, which was duly created in the institution and had been requisitioned to the U.P. Secondary Education Services Selection Board at any point of time. 10. It is needless to refer to Section 16 of the U.P. Secondary Education Services Selection Board Act, 1982, which provides that appointment against substantive vacant post in a recognized institution can be made on the recommendation of the U.P. Secondary Education Services Selection Board or transfer only. Any other mode of appointment renders the appointment void ab initio. 11. In such circumstances, since Sri Deepak Kumar Tiwari has not claimed appointment against the substantively created post of Lecturer Physics, this Court has no hesitation to record that continuance of Sri Deepak Kumar Tiwari under the interim order of the Lucknow Bench cannot in any way affect the appointment of the petitioner, who has been selected against substantively created post of Lecturer Physics under the provisions of U.P. Secondary Education Services Selection Board Act, 1982 and such appointment must be given effect to. It is, therefore, provided that the petitioner shall be permitted to join the institution as Lecturer Physics in the institution concerned within 15 days from today and shall be paid his salary accordingly. This order shall not in any way affect the right of Sri Deepak Kumar Tiwari. Order Accordingly. ———
