UPON hearing the counsel the Court made the following

O R D E R



Hearing resumed.



In course of hearing, we have thought it appropriate



to pass an interim order by which the vacancies can be filled



up and the academic climate in the State of Uttar Pradesh



shall not suffer an unnecessary winter.

CA 4347-4375/14

4



Be it noted, this Court on 25th March, 2014, had



passed the following order:



"Leave granted.



Hearing expedited.



By this interim order, we direct the State of

Uttar Pradesh to fill up the vacancies of

Assistant Teachers in the schools pursuant to

the advertisement issued on 30.11.2011 as per

the directions issued by the Division Bench of

Allahabad High Court in the case of Shiv Kumar

Pathak & Ors. [Special Appeal (Defective)

No.237 of 2013] and connected matters as

expeditiously as possible at any rate within 12

weeks' time from today.



Further, the State in the letter of appointment

that will be issued to the successful

candidates shall mention that their appointment

is subject to the result of the civil appeals

that are pending before this Court.



The appointee(s) shall not claim any equities

at the time of final disposal of the civil

appeals. All actions/proceedings of the State

Government will be subject to the final result

of these civil appeals."



Despite the aforesaid order, the State has not



carried out the appointment process. After hearing the



learned counsel for the parties at length on various

CA 4347-4375/14

5



occasions, we are inclined to modify the order passed on



25th March, 2014, and direct that the State Government shall



appoint the candidates, whose names have not been weeded out



in the malpractice and who have obtained/secured seventy



percent marks in the Teacher Eligibility Test (TET). The



candidates belonging to Scheduled Caste/Scheduled



Tribe/Other Backward Classes and the physically handicapped



persons, shall be appointed if they have obtained/secured



sixty-five percent marks. If there is any policy of the



State Government covering any other category for the purpose



of reservation, it may be given effect to with the same



percentage. It shall be mentioned in the appointment letter



that their appointment shall be subject to the result of



these appeals and they shall not claim any equity because of



the appointment, for it is issued on the basis of the



direction passed by this Court. The letters of appointment



shall be issued within a period of six weeks.



At this juncture, we must state that the



advertisement was issued to fill up 72,825 vacancies in the



post of Assistant Teachers, who have to impart education to



students of Classes I to V. We have been apprised by the



learned counsel for the respondents that there are three



lacs posts lying vacant as on today. In this context, we



must recapitulate the objects and reasons from the Right of



Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009, which

CA 4347-4375/14

6



read as follows:



"The crucial role of universal elementary

education for strengthening the social fabric

of democracy through provision of equal

opportunities to all has been accepted since

inception of our Republic. The Directive

Principles of State Policy enumerated in our

Constitution lays down that the State shall

provide free and compulsory education to all

children up to the age of fourteen years. Over

the years there has been significant spatial

and numerical expansion of elementary schools

in the country, yet the goal of universal

elementary education continues to elude us.

The number of children, particularly children

from disadvantaged groups and weaker sections,

who drop out of school before completing

elementary education, remains very large.

Moreover, the quality of learning achievement

is not always entirely satisfactory even in the

case of children who complete elementary

education.



2. Article 21A, as inserted by the

Constitution (Eighty-sixth Amendment) Act,

2002, provides for free and compulsory

education of all children in the age group of

six to fourteen years as a Fundamental Right in

such manner as the State may, by law,

determine.



3. Consequently, the Right of Children to Free

and Compulsory Education Bill, 2008, is

CA 4347-4375/14

7



proposed to be enacted which seeks to provide,-



(a) that every child has a right to be provided

full time elementary education of satisfactory

and equitable quality in a formal school which

satisfied certain essential norms and

standards;



(b) 'compulsory education' casts an obligation

on the appropriate Government to provide and

ensure admission, attendance and completion of

elementary education;



(c) 'free education' means that no child, other

than a child who has been admitted by his or

her parents to a school which is not supported

by the appropriate Government, shall be liable

to pay any kind of fee or charges or expenses

which may prevent him or her from pursuing and

completing elementary education;



(d) the duties and responsibilities of the

appropriate Governments, local authorities,

parents, schools and teachers in providing free

and compulsory education; and



(e) a system for protection of the right of

children and a decentralized grievance

redressal mechanism.



4. The proposed legislation is anchored in the

belief that the values of equality, social

justice and democracy and the creation of a

just and humane society can be achieved only

through provision of inclusive elementary

CA 4347-4375/14

8



education to all. Provision of free and

compulsory education of satisfactory quality to

children from disadvantaged and weaker sections

is, therefore, not merely the responsibility of

schools run or supported by the appropriate

Governments, but also of schools which are not

dependent on Government FUNDS."



Primary education can be equated to the primary



health of a child. When a child is educated, the Nation



marches towards civilization. No student can inculcate or



cultivate education without guidance. Definitely not a



child, who is supposed to get primary guidance from a



teacher, for him he is like a laser beam. The State, as the



guardian of all citizens and also with a further enhanced and



accentuated responsibilities for the children, has a



sacrosanct obligation to see that the children are educated.



Almost two thousand years back, Kautaliya had stated that the



parents who do not send their children to have the teachings,



deserves to be punished. Similar was the climate in England



almost seven centuries back. Thus, the significance of



education can be well recognized. In such a situation, we



cannot conceive that the posts would lie vacant, students go



untaught and the schools look like barren in a desert waiting



for an oasis. The teacher shall serve the purpose of oasis



in the field of education. Hence, the aforesaid directions.

CA 4347-4375/14

9



The competent authority shall file a compliance



report, failing which they shall face the consequences as the



law provides and the law does not countenance disobedience of



the law and orders of the court.



Let the matter be listed on 25th February, 2015, for



further hearing.
