ORDER

MUHAMMAD AFZAL ZULLAH, J.‑‑

Leave to appeal has been sought from judgment dated 25‑10‑1979 of the Punjab Administrative Tribunal whereby although the petitioner appeal was formally dismissed but for all practical purposes she was allowed the relief of being appointed as Headmistress of a School in Lahore.

2. Learned counsel contends that notwithstanding the Tribunal's directions the authorities concerned have not posted the petitioner as Headmistress.

3. We having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner as also the learned Additional Advocate‑General consider it a fit case for grant of leave to appeal to examine, inter alia, whether despite the formal dismissal of petitioner's appeal she was not allowed the relief of being appointed as Headmistress. If so, whether the respondents could deny her claim on the ground that the Tribunal's order in this behalf was not based on sound reasoning. It may be noted here that the respondents have not so far challenged the order of the Tribunal. Order accordingly.

M.Y.H. Leave granted.
