2.The petitioner, in pursuance of the advertisement issued by the first respondent, has applied for the post of Saleswoman, Packers and other posts in various fair price shops and was selected for appointment as Saleswoman. The first respondent appointed the petitioner as Saleswoman in a fair price shop run by the third respondent and directed the third respondent to issue appointment order to the petitioner. After certificate verification, the respondents 3 and 4 were directed to permit the petitioner to join duty.

¶25

3.The grievance of the petitioner is that inspite of the said order of the first respondent, the third respondent is not issuing appointment order and not permitting the petitioner to join duty, when she approached the respondents 3 and 4 in person.

¶26

4.The learned counsel appearing for the respondents 3 and 4 submitted that while the petitioner was working as Appraiser, she along with the then President misappropriated the amounts of Rs.90 lakhs and in view of the same, the petitioner was not given any appointment order and not permitted to join duty and prayed for suitable orders from this Court.

¶27

5.The learned counsel appearing for the petitioner in reply submitted that the petitioner was appointed only on temporary basis by the then President. The petitioner has not involved in any misconduct. The third respondent is not entitled to initiate any proceedings against the petitioner for misappropriation, if any, by the then President. In view of some misunderstanding between the then President and the third respondent, the petitioner is penalized by not obeying the order of the first respondent. Moreover, the petitioner was appointed for a limited period as Attender on temporary basis.

¶28

6.The learned Government Advocate appearing for the respondents 1 and 2 submitted that the first respondent is the authority and he has appointed the petitioner as a Saleswoman in the fair price shop run by the third respondent and directed the third respondent to issue appointment order and permitted her to work in the fair price shop run by the third respondent.

¶29

7.From the materials on record, it is seen that the petitioner was selected, after due process of selection, as she is possessing necessary qualification. The first respondent has appointed the petitioner to the third respondent society as a Saleswoman. Inspite of the order of the first respondent, the third respondent is refusing to issue appointment order to the petitioner and permit her to join duty. The third respondent is bound by the orders of the first respondent, as the first respondent has https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ Supervisory control over the third respondent society and the
