Court : Chennai

..... seriously infringed and he has no other adequate and specific remedy available to him".7.no doubt, the law has developed since the above decision was given by the allahabad high court in the year 1951, yet it must be reiterated that the development in the law relating to locus standi in writ petitions only carved out some exceptions to the main rule which has been stated correctly by the allahabad high court, and it is not that this main rule itself has been totally ..... it would be wholly wrong for the court to substitute its own opinion for that of the legislature or its delegate as to what principle or policy would best serve the objects and purposes of the act and to sit in judgment over the wisdom and effectiveness or otherwise of the policy laid down by the regulation-making body and declare a regulation to be ultra vires merely on the ground that, in the view of the court, the impugned provisions will not help to serve the object and purpose of the act. ..... 6.shri.k.rajkumar, learned counsel for the petitioner further contended that the government of tamil nadu has issued g.o.ms.no.18, labour and employment department (n2) dated 25.02.2008 in which, the directions have been issued to fill up the post of secondary grade teachers which is a ratio of 1:5. .....
