JUDGEMENT
-
(1.) HEARD counsel at length.
(2.) WE are not satisfied that any interference is necessary with the decision of the learned Single Judge. First of all. we find that no effective relief can be granted to the appellants in the absence
of the particular training institute being impleaded in the writ petition. Secondly, we find that the
stand adopted by the respondents was fully justified, since admittedly, the appellants did not have
the requisite qualification for becoming commercial pilots, namely, 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry
and Mathematics. Here admittedly the appellants did not study mathematics. The programme was
to train tribal youths of the State as commercial pilots. It clearly shows that for becoming a
commercial pilot one has to have 10+2 qualification with physics and mathematics. In other words
physics and mathematics are compulsory. Since the appellants, admittedly, did not have the
requisite qualification for becoming commercial pilots, it appears that the Tribal Welfare
Commissioner rightly withdrew them from the training programme for commercial pilots.
Learned counsel for the appellants argued that Annexure I, the notification only showed the qualification as 10+2 or equivalent examination in Science subjects, and mathematics is not shown
as required. That may be so. But the fact remains that going by the relevant rules referred to by the
authority, for becoming a commercial pilot, one has to have the qualification of 10+2 with
mathematics and physics. All that can be said is that the office of the Tribal Welfare Commissioner,
while issuing notifications of this nature, should have specified that the intending candidate should
have 10+2 with physics and mathematics. The fact that the same was not specified in the
notification cannot confer a right on the appellants to seek the commercial pilots ' licence
without having the qualification prescribed therefor. It is also seen that going by the Rules of 1935,
the educational qualification required for a commercial pilots ' licence is 10+2 with physics and
mathematics.
(3.) THE learned Single Judge has observed that the appellants may be offered training at the next programme, in case by that time, they acquire the qualification required. The appellants cannot
have any complaint regarding this.;
