MANIK CHANDRA DAS Appellant
VERSUS
STATE OF WEST BENGAL Respondents

JUDGEMENT

- (1.) HEARD the learned Advocate appearing for the appellant. None appears on behalf of the State respondents to oppose this appeal.
(2.) CHALLENGING the judgment and order dated 20th December, 2005 passed by the learned trial Judge in W. P. No. 17711 (W) of 2005, this appeal has been preferred by the writ petitioner. The impugned judgment under appeal reads such:- "20. 12. 05 W. P. No. 17711 (W) of 2005 the petitioner herein has prayed for a direction upon the respondent authorities for issuing appointment to the said petitioner as Assistant Teacher in a School considering the post graduate qualification of the said petitioner. Undisputedly, the post of Assistant Teacher can be filled up in a school only on the basis of the recommendation of the School service Commission. The name of the petitioner has not been recommended by the School Service Commission as the petitioner never appeared at the Selection Test conducted by the School Service Commission. Until and unless the name of the petitioner is recommended by the School Service Commission for appointment as Assistant teacher in a School, the District Inspector of Schools (S. E.), murshidabad has no authority to issue any letter of appointment in favour of the petitioner. For the aforementioned reasons, I do not find any merit in this writ petition and the same is accordingly dismissed with no order as to costs. "
