(4) Having regard to the relief claimed, this Court thinks that ends of justice would be met if petitioner is directed to approach the competent authority by making a representation. Writ petition is, accordingly, disposed of with liberty to the petitioner to make representation to Chief Education Officer, Udham Singh Nagar. If she makes such representation within one week from today, Chief Education Officer concerned shall examine the matter and take decision, as per law, within three weeks thereafter. If petitioner is found eligible for regularisation, then necessary order for grant of regular status shall be passed within one week from the date of taking decision.
