GPSC recommendation not yet considered by Goa Govt: AG affirms to HC

Panjim: Aug 26: Advocate General Atmaram Nadkarni today made a statement
before the Panaji
Bench of the Bombay High Court that the Goa Government had not yet
considered the recommendation of the Goa Public Service Commission of Mr.
Dnyneshwar Pundalik Pednekar present Principal of Smt. Chandrabaga Tukobha
Naik Higher Secondary School of Curchorem, Goa, for appointment to the post
of Director of Education and that the State Government had not taken any
decision to date.

After recording the Advocate General�s statement the Panaji Bench comprising
of Justice S. Radhakrishnan and Justice PV  Hardas allowed the Petitioner
Adv. Aires Rodrigues to withdraw the Public Interest Litigation challenging
the Government move to appoint Mr. Pednekar as Director of Education as the
Petition was pre-mature inview of the fact that Mr. Pednekar was not yet
appointed to the post.

The Panaji Bench of the Bombay High Court however told the Advocate General
that the allegations against Mr. Pednekar were of a serious nature and
wondered whether such a person could be selected to the high Post of
Director of Education.

The PIL has been filed by Adv. Aires Rodrigues on the grounds that by
considering a person whose integrity is in doubt and who has committed
unscrupulous and criminal acts, the confidence of the public in the
education system in Goa will be eroded and will affect the students and the
teaching faculty and have a disastrous affect on the education system.

The Petitioner has submitted that the records prove that the conduct of Mr.
Dnyneshwar Pundalik Pednekar in not only changing his own date of birth but
more importantly, also changing the date of birth of his daughter by
fraudulent and unscrupulous acts and making false declarations to derive
advantage thereby, shows that he is a person whose integrity is not only
doubtful but is capable of changing or falsifying records to suit his
purpose and to derive advantages therefrom.

Adv. Aires Rodrigues is expected to approach the High Court again incase The
Government of Goa still goes ahead and appoints Mr. Pednekar as Director of
Education.
