Judgment

1. Heard Sri Seemant Singh, learned counsel for petitioner and Sri Hare Ram, learned counsel for respondents- 2 and 3.

2. This is second round of litigation.

3. The earlier Writ A No. 3612/2024 was disposed of vide order dated 19.03.2024, whereby a direction was passed to take a fresh decision after granting an opportunity to petitioner to submit certificate of U.P. T.E.T. Primary Level Examination,

2021. For reference, said order in its entirety is quoted below in its entirety :-

“1. Heard Sri Seemant Singh, learned counsel for petitioner, Ms. Archana Singh, Sri Hare Ram and Sri Bharat Pratap Singh, learned counsel for respondents.

3. Learned counsel for petitioner submits that in pursuance of an order of date passed by this Court in Prateek Mishra and 4 others vs. State of U.P. and others, 2024:AHC:49055, legal embargo to issue TET certificates is now being removed, therefore, petitioner may be permitted to submit TET marksheet/certificate and claim of petitioner for compassionate appointment may be considered on that ground.

4. Learned counsel for respondents submits that by the impugned order dated 13.12.2023, petitioner was offered for appointment on compassionate basis on class-IV post within a week, however, he has not approached concerned respondent but learned counsel have not disputed that legal embargo has already been removed by this Court.

5. In these circumstances, let an opportunity be granted to petitioner to submit certificate of U.P. TET Primary Level Examination-2021 and concerned respondents will take a fresh decision considering the certificate also in terms of judgment passed by Supreme Court in Bank of Baroda vs. Baljit Singh, 2023 SCC Online SC 745 and State of West Bengal vs. Debabrata Tiwari and others, 2023 SCC Online SC 219.

6. At this stage, it is made clear that this Court has not entered into merit of the case 2 so far as claim of petitioner for compassionate appointment is concerned.

7. With these observations, this writ petition is disposed of.”

4. Learned counsel for petitioner has submitted that thereafter petitioner has submitted a representation on 30.05.2024, however, it was again rejected by impugned order dated 06.07.2024 and grounds mentioned in earlier impugned order were reiterated after taking note of a report submitted by District Level Committee dated 27.06.2024 reiterating same grounds which were already rejected by this Court in above referred order.

5. Per contra, learned counsel for respondents has submitted that petitioner was required to submit TET Certificate within 5 years of death of his father i.e. before 29.09.2023, however, he has submitted the same on 28.05.2024 i.e. which couldnot be taken note after aforesaid order dated 19.03.2024 was passed in earlier round of litigation.

6. Learned counsel has further submitted that petitioner ought to have possessed requisite qualification for Class-III post on the date when he has initially submitted his application for compassionate appointment i.e. in the year 2018 but admittedly, at that time, he has not passed TET Certificate as well as that petitioner has no absolute right to claim that he shall be appointed on compassionate basis only on a Class-III post. The petitioner was offered appointment on a Class-IV post, but he has accepted it.

8. Heard learned counsel for parties and perused the record. In first round of litigation, this Court has passed aforesaid order dated 19.03.2024, wherein a specific liberty was granted to 4 petitioner to submit Certificate of TET and concerned respondent will take a fresh decision considering the certificate also. However, by the impugned order, not only concerned respondent has reiterated earlier grounds of rejection but has also not taken note that this Court has permitted the petitioner to submit TET Certificate even after period of 5 years with a specific direction that same shall be taken note of.

9. In above circumstances, the Court is of view that as referred above, in the impugned order, direction passed by this Court was wholly bypassed and ignored, which on face of it is a contemptious act.

10. In aforesaid circumstances, impugned order dated

06.07.2024 passed by District Basic Education Officer, Etawah is hereby set aside and matter is remitted back to concerned respondent to pass a fresh order after taking note of directions passed by this Court in earlier order of this Court dated

19.03.2024 and shall not reject the claim of petitioner on erroneous grounds i.e. if the petitioner has satisfied eligibility criteria for appointment on post of Class-III, his claim shall not be rejected only on a ground that he has submitted his TET Certificate after 5 year though it is further made clear that in case there is still any other legal impediment, concerned respondent will be at liberty to communicate legal impediment, within a short period.

11. This writ petition is disposed of with above observations. Order Date :- April 07, 2025 Sinha_N. [Saurabh Shyam Shamshery, J.] 5 NIRMAL SINHA High Court of Judicature at Allahabad
