Case at a glance
Provisions considered
Judgment
a Writ of Mandamus cannot be issued by the High Court under Article 226 of the Constitution to the competent Legislature either to enact the legislation or to bring into force legislation already enacted. Hence, the submission of Counsel appearing on behalf of the Petitioner in that regard cannot be accepted. 3 However, while disposing of the petition, it would be appropriate if a copy of this order as well as of the judgment of the Supreme Court in the Ahmedabad Pvt. Primary Teachers' Association case is directed to be served on the Principal Secretary in the Department of Education of the State Government so as to enable the authorities concerned to be alive to the problem faced by a large number of teachers who have superannuated and who will superannuate in the future. The State Government may consider what steps should be taken in the light of the observations contained in para 26 of the judgment of the Supreme Court. The
