The Madrasah underwent an inspection by the District Level Inspection Team and was provisionally recognized by the West Bengal Board of Madrasah Education from Class V to VIII, subject to certain conditions. The petitioner alleged mistreatment by respondent 11, including preventing him from signing the attendance register, withholding salary payments, disrupting school operations, and attempted to remove the petitioner from official records. Despite receiving complaints and representations from the petitioner, the respondents failed to address the issue, leading to the filing of the writ petition.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The petitioner argued that the petitioner&#8217;s rights as an approved teacher should be protected, and the failure to do so constitutes a miscarriage of justice. It was contended that the respondents&#8217; inaction in considering the petitioner&#8217;s representations violates principles of natural justice. It was contended that the petitioner&#8217;s right to participate in the Managing Committee as a Teacher Representative was allegedly infringed upon by respondent 11. It was argued that the respondents&#8217; failure to file an affidavit-in-opposition despite specific court directions demonstrates their lack of cooperation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court noted the failure of the respondents to file affidavits-in-opposition despite specific directions and stated that <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">&#8220;when this Court specifically directs the respondents to file affidavit-inopposition, it is the bounden duty of the respondents to file the affidavitin-opposition. The non-filing of the affidavit-in-opposition despite specific direction is not appreciable and there is also no proper assistance from the side of the respondents to arrive at a logical conclusion.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court stated that <span style=\"font-weight: bold;\">&#8220;since serious allegations are levelled, the authorities ought to have decided the representations of the petitioner immediately upon the receipt of the same. However, in the instant case, the respondent authorities have failed to do so.&#8221;<\/span> The Court found merit in the petitioner&#8217;s contentions regarding his mistreatment and the non-consideration of his representations. The Court held that the failure of the respondent authorities to address the petitioner&#8217;s grievances constituted a violation of natural justice principles.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">In the interest of justice and fairness, the Court intervened to ensure the petitioner&#8217;s representations were adequately considered and addressed by the authorities and directed the respondents to consider the petitioner&#8217;s representations and issue appropriate orders within 12 weeks. The Court instructed the petitioner to provide a copy of the court order along with his representations to the respondents within 2 weeks. The writ petition was disposed of without costs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 3%;\">[<span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #632423;\"><span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Ghanashyam Das<\/span> v. <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">State of W.B.<\/span>, W.P.A.No. 1233 of 2016, order dated 21-02-2024<\/span>]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000080;\">*Judgment by Justice MV Muralidaran<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<p>Advocates who appeared in this case :<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-left: 18pt;\">Mr. G.
