Appointment of director od a medical institute.

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 29 January 2011 This query is : Resolved 
This is a question regarding The Institute of Medical Sciences In Srinagar Kashmir..
A Doctor was appointed as an interim director of the institute after superseding 12 senior faculty members.
He had no Administrative experience and his bio data clearly mentioned it.
Others senior doctors had 3 to 5 years administrative experience but they were left out.
Before his appointment The High Court of J&K had mentioned in a judgement that a director below 50 years should be appointed as interim director but he was still appointed by the government.
His order was passed by the chief minister on Sunday.
He was appointed on as an interim director and as per High Court directions a very quick selection process for a Permanent Director was to be done but the person managed to get into the bureaucracy and delay the process of selection and its about 3 years now and there is no selection.
He is now retiring in April but with the help of The Chief Sectary of the state he is trying to get an extension for 2 years.
The Hospital has be totally destroyed in his tenure and corruption is everywhere. He cares for nothing and patients are suffering.

Can a PIL or any other writ be filed in the High Court to remove him and stop him from getting an extension.
Can an Interim Director of an institute be appointed without any time limit. He is there for more than 3 years now.
Can a doctor who is a junior with no administrative experience be appointed as Interim Directer leaving all the senior doctors with administrative experiences of 3 to 5 years.
Can he get an extension and selection process delayed.

It is certainly a matter of public interest. You can file PIL.

File Writ of Quo warranto before High Court.
