It has been further stated that in the meanwhile, the petitioner had been selected and appointed as a B.T.Assistant, through the Teachers Recruitment Board and he has been posted in the Government Higher Secondary School, Athiyamankottai, Dharmapuri District. The petitioner had taken charge of the post, on 10. 2007. Since he was only a Honorary Secretary of the Society and as he was not receiving emoluments he had requested the authorities of the Education Department to permit him to continue as its Secretary. However, his request had been rejected by the first respondent, by his order, dated 11. 2008. The appeal preferred against the said order had also been rejected by the second respondent, on 9. 2008. In such circumstances, the petitioner has preferred the present writ petition before this Court, under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. 5. A counter affidavit has been filed on behalf of the second respondent stating that, as per Rule 8(1)(b) of the Government Servants Conduct Rules, 1973, a person who gets appointed in the Government Service should not be in any other service, either in the service of the Government or in the private sectors, nor would he be entitled to do any social work, which would affect his Government service. Since he has been appointed as a B.T.Assistant Teacher in the Government Higher Secondary School, in Dharmapuri District, his continuance in the post of Secretary of the Society would adversely affect the interests of the students. As such, the first respondent has issued the impugned orders rejecting the petitioners request to continue as the Secretary of the Society, namely, Vallalar Illam. 6. At this stage of the hearing of the writ petition, the learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner had submitted that the petitioner undertakes to resign from the post of Secretary of the Society and hand over charge, within one week from the date of the passing of final orders by the appellate authority, as directed by the First Bench of this Court, by its order, dated 6. 2009, made in W.A.Nos.51 to 53 of 2009. 7. The learned counsel appearing on behalf of the respondents had submitted that in view of the undertaking given by the petitioner the respondents would not implement the impugned orders of the first respondent, in his proceedings, in Omu.No.117682/C3/E2/07, dated 14.01.2008, and Na.Ka.No.76129/C3/E2/2008, dated 9. 2008, till final orders are passed by the appellate authority, as directed by the First Bench of this Court, by its order, dated 6. 2009 and for a week thereafter, to enable the petitioner to resign from the post of Secretary of the Society. 8.
