' This Intra-Court Appeal filed under section 3 of the Law Reforms Ordinance, 1972, calls-in-question the order dated 29-3-2010 passed by the learned Single Judge,-in- Chamber in Writ Petition No,2427 of 2010, whereby the said Constitutional petition was dismissed in limine, wherein vires of Notification No,PS/SSE/Misc/2009/176 Government of the Punjab School Education Department dated 18-9-2009 were challenged and the learned Judge observed as under:--- "Perusal of Notification No, PS/SSE/Misc/2009/176 Government of the Punjab School Education Department dated 18-9-2009 reveals that the National Scheme of studies requires that the subjects of Science and Mathematics will be taught in English in each school. The Government of the Punjab is implementing this policy in a phased manner. In first phase 588 High Schools and 1103 Government Community Model Girls Primary School were converted into English Medium Schools.
In second phase 1176 more High and Higher Secondary Schools (double than the previous figure) will be converted into English Medium from 1st April, 2010. The total number of selected High Schools and Higher Secondary schools will become 1764: Finally all remaining Government Schools from Primary to Higher Secondary will start teaching of Science and Mathematics in English from 1st April, 2011.
3. As in this case, the conversion of Government Schools into English Medium Schools from 1st April, 2010, is a policy decision of the Government, so any writ against such a decision is barred (2005 PLC (C.S.) 836 relied upon). The writ petition therefore, stands dismissed in limine".
2. After having considered the submissions made by the learned counsel for the appellant and going through the contents of the memorandum of appeal as well as the law on the subject, we find that the appellant, in gist and substance, is aggrieved of the policy introduced by the Punjab Government, School Education Department, whereby the subjects of Science and Mathematics were to be taught in English and the Government Schools were converted into English Medium Schools from 1st April 2010. This policy 'in our opinion was introduced for enhancement of the standard of education as compared to private institutions, which cannot be interfered with while sitting in Constitutional jurisdiction; the same being purely a policy decision of the Government. In the in-hand case, the proper course for the appellant is to approach the appropriate forum of the Government through public to resolve his grievance so that the matter could be taken up and resolved by the public representatives sitting in or outside the Assemblies, as the matter is within the domain of jurisdiction of the authority taking the policy decision. For the sake of academic discussion, in order to maintain balance in every sphere of life, Legislator is to legislate; Executive to implement and the Judiciary to interpret the law and Constitution. This Court cannot assume the role of policy maker or that of a law maker.
3. So far as the contentions of the learned counsel for the appellant mentioned in the writ petition and agitated before this Court including the impugned Notification to be against Articles 2-A, 9, 38 and 251 of the Constitution, suffice it to observe that educational knowledge, in various languages, makes a unique contribution by bringing the world systems and different theories including political one into conversation about the changes that are occurring in the educational arena. In the same sequence, when the Qur'an began to' reveal, the first word of its first verse was "Iqra" that is, 'read'. Allah Almighty says (what means), "Read! In the Name of your Lord who has created (all that exists). He has created man from a clot (a piece of thick coagulated blood), Read! And your Lord is the ,Most Generous. Who has taught (the writing) by the pen. He has taught man that which he knew not" [Qur'an, 96;1-5], ' Allah Almighty says (what means):--- "And Allah has brought you out from the wombs of your mothers while you know nothing, And He gave you hearing, sight, and hearts that you might give thanks (to Allah)"[Qur'an, 16;78]. ' because of the importance of knowledge, Allah Almighty commanded. His Messenger, The Holy Prophet, Muhammad (Peace be upon him) to seek more of it. Allah Almighty says (what means):-- "and say: 'My Lord! Increase me in knowledge [Qur'an, 20:114] ' The Holy Prophet, Muhammad (Peace be upon him) said, "Utlub it 'ilma wa law fis-Sin, Seek knowledge even in China,"
4. In nutshell, nothing is required to be done by this Court in this appeal. No illegality has been committed by the learned Single Judge C while passing the order dated 29-3-2010. Accordingly, the appeal stands dismissed in limine being devoid of force.
