Heard Sri Ashok Khare, learned Senior Advocate assisted by Sri Kauntey Singh, learned counsel for petitioner, Sri Ashish Kumar Nagwanshi, learned Additional Chief Standing Counsel for State-Respondents and Sri Paritosh Kumar Malviya, Advocate for Respondent-5. 2. Petitioner was non suited as his experience certificate was considered to be a forged document on basis of statement of Principal of concerned Madarsa and, therefore, petitioner’s appointment on the post of Headmaster of respondent Madarsa was set aside vide order dated 16.04.2012. 3. Aforesaid order was subject matter of challenge in Writ-A No. 20631 of 2012, which was disposed of vide order dated 27.04.2012 and the said order is reproduced hereinafter: “This petition is directed against an order of the Committee of Management of Madarsa Aljameatul Islamia Tilakhara, Shivpati Nagar, District Siddharth Nagar which is an aided and recognized Madarsa. Under the order impugned, the Committee of management of the Madarsa has decided to dismiss the petitioner after holding a departmental enquiry, after finding him guilty of the charges levelled against him.

Legal Reasoning

Reference in that regard is made to the judgment of this Court in the case of "Mohd. Saleem Vs. Committee of Management Madarsa Rafiqul Islam, Gaura Badshahpur And others" Special Appeal No. 80 of 2010. This Court is of the opinion that the petitioner may first approach the Inspector/Registrar Arbi tatha Farsi Madarsa Board for ventilating his grievance at the first instance. It is provided that if such representation is filed by the petitioner within one week along with a certified copy of this order, the Registrar of the Board shall decide the same in accordance with law by means of a reasoned speaking order after affording opportunity to the management of the petitioner preferably within four weeks thereafter. Since the vacancy has already been advertised, it is further provided that any selection/appointment made in the meantime shall abide by the orders to be passed by the Registrar as indicated above.

Arguments

Learned counsel for the petitioner raised various grounds for challenging the order. On behalf of the respondents it is stated that under Rule 34 of the Arbi tatha Farsi Madarsa Mandatory Niyamawali, 1987, power of visitation has been conferred upon the Inspector/Registrar, Arbi and Farsi Madarsa and, therefore, the petitioner may be relegated to the remedy so provided.

Decision

With the aforesaid observations, the writ petition is disposed of.” 4. In aforesaid circumstances, petitioner has filed a representation before Registrar, U.P. Madarsa Shiksha Parishad and in support of his claim that experience certificate was genuine, specific averments were made in paras 16 and 18 of representation. For reference the same are reproduced hereinafter: “(16) तत्समय वरर 1990 मम मदरससे कको ककससी ्ቚककार ककी सरककारसी मदद नहीሻ कमलतसी थसी। दकान / चन्दसे ससे ्ቚका्቎ आमदनसी ससे हसी मदरससे कसे कशि्ቌकोሗ /कमरचकाररयोሗ कको मकाममूलसी तनख्वकाह दसी जकातसी थसी तथका पढ़नसे वकालसे बच्चोሗ कसे हकास्टल कका भसी खचर चलकायका जकातका थका ऐससी सस्थकत मम ममुझसे पढ़कानसे कसे सकाथ -सकाथ आकफिस कसे सभसी ककायर करनसे पड़तसे थसे। मसेरसे मदरससे कसे शसी जलकालमुदसीन ससंस्थकापक ्ቚधकानकाचकायर तथका शसी ममुश्तकाक अहमद ससंस्थकापक ्ቚबसंधक थसे। शसी जलकालमुदसीन ्ቚधकानकाचकायर पद ससे कदनकासंक 30 जमून 2010 कको ससेवका कनववृ्ቈ हको गयसे। शसी जलकालमुदसीन तत्ककालसीन ्ቚधकानकाचकायर दकारका कदनकासंक 15 जमून 2010 कको स्वयसं कसे अपनसे हस्तलसेख ( Hand Writing ससे ममुझसे 1990 ससे 1 अ्ቚቚንल ) 96 तक आललयका दजर मम पढ़कानसे कका अनमुभव ्ቚमकाण -प्ቔ कनगरत ककयका गयका , चमू ूማकक मदरससे मम आललयका दजर मम पढ़कानसे कका ककायर ससंस्थकापक ्ቚबसंधक एवसं ्ቚधकानकाचकायर ककी दसेखरसेख मम मसेरसे दकारका ककयका गयका थका इसललयसे ससंस्थकापक ्ቚबसंधक दकारका उ्ሹ ्ቚमकाण प्ቔ ककी तस्दसीक (्ቚमकाकणत) ककी गई। यह ककायर अनमुभव ्ቚमकाण प्ቔ क्ቈई ततौर पर कववकाद रकहत हቚን। ककायर अनमुभव ्ቚमकाण प्ቔ यकाकचकका कसे Annexure No . 23 पर दृ्ቖव्य हቚን। (18) वतरमकान ्ቚबसंधक दकारका अपनसे चयकनत हकोनसे कसे पश्चकात हसी अपनसे ककससी सगसे कको ्ቚधकानकाचकायर पद पर यसेन कसे न ्ቚककारसेण हमम हटकाकर उससे ्ቚधकानकाचकायर बनकानसे पर आमकादका हको गयसे। इसकसे ललयसे उन्हकोनम ससंस्थकापक ्ቚधकानकाचकायर शसी जलकालमुदसीन कसे फिजቌኍ हस्तका्ቌरोሗ ससे एक प्ቔ तቚንयकार ककयका कक मसेरसे अध्यकापन ककायर अनमुभव कका ्ቚमकाण प्ቔ उनकसे दकारका जकारसी नहीሻ ककयका गयका हቚን जबकक ममुझसे ्ቚधकानकाचकायर पद ससंस्थकापक ्ቚधकानकाचकायर शसी जलकालमुदसीन ससे हसी ्ቚका्቎ हहआ थका। ऐससी सस्थकत मम ससंस्थकापक ्ቚबसंधक तथका ्ቚधकानकाचकायर ककी आूማ खोሗ कसे सकामनसे उनककी दसेख -रसेख मम मसेरसे दकारका ककयका गयका दमूकरत मसंशिका ससे कमू टरकचत प्ቔ दकारका कववकाकदत बनकानसे कका ्ቚयकास ककयका गयका जको पमूणरतयका झमूठका एवसं असत्य हቚን।" 5. Petitioner was provided all relevant documents by Registrar and accordingly 18.06.2012 was fixed for hearing. However, by means of impugned order dated 22.06.2012 representation of petitioner was rejected mainly relying on the earlier version without application of any independent mind. 6. In this regard, the argument of learned Senior Advocate appearing for petitioner has substance that in impugned order petitioner’s version has not even noted or considered and only on basis of a report which states the earlier version, impugned order was passed. No opportunity was provided to petitioner to place his case before said authority. For reference relevant part of impugned order is reproduced hereinafter: "शसी हफिकीजमुररहमकान दकारका उपलब्ध करकायसे गयसे शिቚንक्ቌक अनमुभव कसे अनमुसकार उनकसे दकारका मदरसका अल जकाकमयकातमुल इस्लकाकमयका कतलकहनका कशिवपकतनगर लसदकाथर नगर मम 01.01.1990 ससे 01.04.1996 तक आललयका स्तर कका कशि्ቌण ककायर ककयका गयका। ्ቚवन्धसकमकत दकारका गकठत आरकोपोሗ कसे सम्बन्ध मम ्ቚबसंधसकमकत कको सम्बकोलधत शसी हफिकीजमुररहमकान नसे अपनसे प्ቔ कदनकासंक 25.11.2011 कसे मकाध्यम ससे अकभलसेखसीय सकाቌኚयोሗ ककी मकासंग ककी . लजसकसे सम्बन्ध मम अपनसे प्ቔ मदरसका उपरको्ሹ नसे प्ቔ एम /63/11 कदनकासंक 30.11.2011 कसे मकाध्यम ससे शसी हफिकीजमुररहमकान कको 6 स्቎काह कसे भसीतर उ्ቈर ्ቚस्तमुत करनसे हसेतमु कनदरकशित ककयका। परन्तमु शसी हफिकीजमुररहमकान उपसस्थत नहीሻ हहयसे। तदकोपरकासंत दቚንकनक समकाचकार प्ቔ रकोजनकामका रका्ቖषसीय सहकारका उदमू र कदनकासंक 16.12.2011. अमर उजकालका कदनकासंक 17.12.2011 तथका स्वतसं्ቔ चसेतनका कदनकासंक 17.12.2011 मम कवजकापन ्ቚककाकशित करतसे हहयसे शसी हफिकीजमुररहमकान कको जकासंच सकमकत कसे सम्ቌ उपसस्थत हकोकर जवकाव ्ቚस्तमुत करनसे हसेतमु कनदरकशित ककयका गयका। तत्पश्चकात कदनकासंक 15.03.2012 कको जकासंच ककायरवकाहसी समका्቎ कर दसी गई। कदनकासंक 03.04.2012 कको तसीन सदस्यसीय सकमकत नसे अपनसी जजॉच ररपकोटर मम शसी हफिकीजमुररहमकान कसे कवरुद लगकायसे गयसे आरकोपोሗ मम ससे 2 व 3 कको लसद गयका। आरकोप प्ቔ ्ቚबन्धसकमकत ककी बቚንठक कदनकासंक 16.12.2011 एवसं 15.02.2012 दकारका अनमुमकोकदत हቚን। तत्पश्चकात ्ቚबन्धक मदरसका उपरको्ሹ नसे प्ቔकासंक एम /102/12 कदनकासंक 16.04.2012 कसे मकाध्यम ससे जकासंच सकमकत ककी जकासंच ररपकोटर कदनकासंक 03.04.2012 मम शसी हफिकीजमुररहमकान कसे कवरूद आरकोकपत ककयसे गयसे तथ्योሗ कको सहसी पकायका एवसं शसी हफिकीजमुररहमकान दकारका ककोई भसी बचकाव व तकर ्ቚस्तमुत न ककयसे जकानसे कको पमूणर रूपसेण सहमकत मकानतसे हहयसे ्ቚबन्ध सकमकत कसे कनणरय कदनकासंक 08.04.2012 कसे ्ቅम मम बखकारस्त करतसे हहयसे ्ቚकरण कका असंकतम रूप ससे कनस्तकारण कर कदयका गयका। इस ्ቚककार स्प्ቖ हቚን कक शसी हफिकीजमुररहमकान नसे मदरसका अल जकामसेअतमुल इस्लकाकमयका कतलकहनका , पको० कशिवपकतनगर, लसदकाथरनगर मम ्ቚधकानकाचकायर कसे पद पर कनयमुक्ሹ कसे समय जको अनमुभव ्ቚमकाण प्ቔ ्ቚस्तमुत ककयका थका वह पमूणरतययः फिजቌኍ हቚን। अतयः इस फिजቌኍ अनमुभव ्ቚमकाणप्ቔ पर कनयमुक्ሹ पकानका , उसपर बनसे रहनका पमूणरतयः गቚንरककानमूनसी हቚን एवसं इस आधकार पर ्ቚबन्धक मदरसका दकारका शसी हफिकीजमुररहमकान कको बखकारस्त ककयका जकानका पमूणरतयः कवलध सम्मत हቚን। उपरको्ሹ ससे स्प्ቖ हቚን कक अपचकारसी कमरचकारसी कसे कवरूद ससेवका समकाक्቎ ककी ककायरवकाहसी करतसे समय मदरसका मकान्यतका एवसं ससेवका कनयमकावलसी 1987 ककी धकारका - 33 एवसं 34 कका कवलधक रूप ससे पमूणररूपसेण अनमुपकालन करतसे हहयसे यकाचसीकतकार शसी हफिकीजमुररहमकान कको समुनवकाई कका यमुक्ሹयमु्ሹ अवसर ्ቚदकान करतसे हहए शसी हफिकीजमुररहमकान कसे कवरूद बखकारस्तगसी आदसेशि कदनकासंक 16.04.2012 पकाररत ककयका गयका हቚን लजसमम ककससी ्ቚककार कसे हस्त्ቌसेप ककी आवश्यकतका नहीሻ हቚን।" 7. Learned counsels appearing for respondents submit that during pendency of this writ petition on basis of a fresh advertisement appointment has already been made, therefore, at this stage, no relief cant be granted to petitioner. 8. In reply to above submission, learned Senior Advocate appearing for petitioner submits that this Court has passed following order on 10.07.2012: “Learned Standing Counsel has accepted notice on behalf of the respondent nos. 1,2,3, and 4 and Sri M.D. Misra, Advocate along with Sri Paritosh Malviya, advocate has entered appearance on behalf of the respondent no.5. Each one of the respondents is granted six weeks time to file counter affidavit. Rejoinder affidavit may be filed within two weeks thereafter. List after eight weeks. Any action taken during this period, shall abide by final order to be passed by this court.” 9. He further submits that such appointment, if any, shall abide by final order to be passed in this writ petition. 10. In aforesaid circumstances, the Court is of the view that consideration of representation of petitioner by concerned respondent is only an eye wash. The contention of petitioner is not even referred in impugned order. Contents of representation were also not considered and only on basis of earlier documents, specifically the letter of Principal of erstwhile Madarsa that experience certificate was not genuine, impugned order was passed. This approach being erroneous, therefore, illegality is perpetuated. 11. In aforesaid circumstances, the Court is of the view that observations made in impugned order dated 22.06.2012 that petitioner was provided complete opportunity of hearing, is contrary to record. 12. In view of above, writ petition is allowed. Impugned order dated 22.06.2012 is hereby set aside and matter is remitted back to concerned respondent to pass a fresh order within a period of four weeks from today, after giving opportunity of hearing to petitioner and for that petitioner shall appear before Registrar, Uattar Pradesh Madarsa Shiksha Parishad on 15th May, 2025.
