ORDER

' The petitioner through this writ petition has challenged the order of respondent No, 3 dated 12-3- 1990.

2. The relevant facts are that the petitioner and respondent No, 5 are serving as Teachers in the Social Security Model School, Jauharabad. The respondent No, 3 invited applications for appointment of the Principal for the said school and after processing their applications respondent No, 5 was selected and appointed vide order dated 30-8-1988. The petitioner filed an appeal with the respondent No, 2 against this appointment but the same was dismissed. Thereafter she has filed the present petition.

3. The learned counsel for the petitioner in support of the petition argued that the respondent No, 5 did not possess the requisite qualifications as given in the advertisement and she was junior to petitioner, therefore, she could not be promoted.

4. I have given my anxious consideration to the arguments of the learned counsel for the petitioner and gone through the record. It is clear from the advertisement as well as impugned order that it is a case of fresh appointment. The respondent No, 5 has not been promoted. The admitted position on record is that the petitioner did not fulfil the qualifications as given in the advertisement, therefore, she was not qualified to be appointed and as such cannot agitate against the appointment of respondent No,

5. The petitioner was not upto the mark, therefore, cannot object to the appointment of respondent No, 5.

5. The result is that there is no merit in this petition. The same is dismissed in limine.
