IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.5531 of 2007 Deepak Kumar, S/o Sri Vijay Kumar, R/o Village Bhagwanpur, P.O. Baijnathpur, P.S. Saur Bazar, District Saharsa. --------- Petitioner Versus 1. The State of Bihar. 2. The District Magistrate, Saharsa. 3. The District Superintendent of Education, Saharsa. 4. The Block Education Extension Officer, Saur Bazar, District Saharsa. 5. The Mukhiya, Grampanchayat Raj Chandaur West, Block & P.S. Saur Bazar, District Saharsa. 6. The Panchayat Secretary, Grampanhayat Raj Chandaur West, Block & P.S. Saur Bazar, District Saharsa. 7. Pramod Kumar, S/o Sri Animesh Chandra Verma, R/o Village Samda, P.S. Saur Bazar, District Saharsa. -------- Respondents ----------- 2 27.10.2010 No one appears on behalf of the petitioner. Counsel for the State is present. In the opinion of this Court, the following relief of the petitioner in this writ application:- “1. That this is an application for issuance of a writ in the nature of certiorari to quash the selection of the respondent no.7 as Panchayat Shiksha Mitra vide selection letter as contained in memo no. 7-4 dated 7.6.05 issued by the respondent no.5 and further for issuance of an appropriate writ in the nature of Mandamus and/or any other appropriate writ, order or direction commanding the respondents to consider the petitioner’s case for his selection as Panchayat Shiksha Mitra of Chandaur West grampanchayat in place of the respondent no.7.” so far it relates to a direction for his own selection and appointment on the post of Panchayat Shiksha Mitra cannot be now issued by this Court, inasmuch as, the said post has already been abolished. However, the grievance of the petitioner as with regard to the illegality in the selection and appointment of respondent no.7, who 2 is said to have been appointed initially on the post of Shiksha Mitra and later on absorbed as Panchayat Shikshak can still be gone into by the District Teachers Appellate Authority. Therefore, if the petitioner would file a complaint as with regard to the anomaly in selection and appointment of the respondent no.7, the same shall be dealt and decided by the concerned District Teachers Appellate Authority strictly in accordance with law after affording opportunity of hearing to the petitioner as also respondent no.7. With the aforementioned observations and direction, this application is disposed of. Rsh (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
