O R D E R

The relief sought for in this writ petition to direct the 2nd respondent to sponsor the petitioner's name for the post of B.T. Assistant.

2.The very relief, as such, sought for in this writ petition cannot be granted now, in view of the fact that the appointment to the post of B.T. Assistant has to be undertaken only through the Teachers Recruitment Board and in accordance with the recruitment rules in force. The appointment has to be made only by following the recruitment rules in force and there cannot be any consideration for issuing any such direction for sponsoring the name of the writ petitioner. The writ petitioner has to participate in the process of selection and get herself selected. Thus, the relief as such https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

sought for cannot be granted and it is left open to the writ petitioner to submit an application if any notification is issued and participate in the process of selection by putting hard work. 3.Accordingly, the writ petition stands dismissed. However, there shall be no order as to costs.
