"In this bunch of writ petitions, the petitioners have challenged the Government Orders dated 6th June, 2001 and 30th June 2003 wherein restriction has been imposed for the engagement of teachers as Subject Expert who have completed three academic sessions. This condition has been already quashed by the Lucknow of this Court in Writ Petition No. 6319 (SS) of 2003, (Chandra Kishore and others v. State of U.P. and' others) decided on 20th October, 2003.

Thereafter it appears that State Government incorporated amendment in U.P. Secondary Education Services Selection Board, Act 1982 incorporating U.P. Secondary Education Services Selection Board, (Amendment) Act 2006 and therein Section 21-E was introduced which provides for absorption of Subject Experts against substantive vacancy. Petitioner claims that pursuant to said statutory provision introduced by means of Section 21-E of U.P. Act No. V of 1982, petitioner was absorbed at Rastriya Inter College, Dhanura District J.P. Nagar vide order dated 12.9.2007 passed by Regional Joint Director Education. Petitioner submits that thereafter he sought transfer under Regulations 55 to 62 of Chapter III of U.P. Act No. II of 1921 Said transfer application was allowed and he came back at the present institution and since then he has been functioning in the institution. Petitioner has further stated that there are 12 sanctioned posts of Lecturer in different subjects against which nine Lecturers are working in the institution and three posts of Lecturers are lying vacant in the institution which is inclusive of the post of Lecturer in English. Petitioner's contention is that said post of Lecturer in English is liable to be filled by way of promotion and further submits that his claim is liable to be considered under 50% quota and in such a situation and in this background request which has been made by Panjesh Kumar, Lecturer in English Lok Priya Inter College, Meerut for being transferred to petitioner's institution as Lecturer in English is not at all liable to be accepted by way of transfer as Lecturer in English at Kundan Model Inter College, Amroha, District J.P. Nagar. With the aforesaid request present writ petition in question has been filed.
(3.) SRI Irshad Ali, Advocate contended with vehemence that in the present case petitioner fulfills the requisite eligibility criteria for consideration of his claim for promotion on the post of Lecturer in English as post in question is falling within 50% quota, as such in all eventuality said post is to be filled up by way of promotion in this background no steps whatsoever should be taken for filling up the said post by way of transfer, as such writ petition in question deserves to be allowed.;
