COMMISSIONER-CUM-SECRETARY, HUMAN RESOURCES DEPARTMENT, NEW SECRETARIAT, PATNA 3. SECRETARY, BIHAR KARAMCHARI CHAYAN AYOG, VETANARY COLLEGE, PATNA-4 4. SECRETARY, HUMAN RESOURCES DEPARTMENT, NEW SECRETARIATE, PATNA ………….RESPONDENTS ----------- Heard the parties. This writ petition has been filed by way of a Public Interest Litigation. 2. We have noticed the relevant facts as submitted by the counsel. The petitioners are aggrieved with certain stipulations in the advertisement for recruitment to the post of Assistant Teachers in the Primary Schools in the State of Bihar. 3. In service matters it is not prudent to entertain a 2 public interest litigation. Further, it appears that the advertisement is pursuant to directions of the Supreme Court in Contempt Petition (Civil) No. 297 of 2007 in Special Leave Petition (C) No. 22882 of 2004. 4. Learned counsel for the State submits that the matter is still pending before the Apex Court which is monitoring the process of recruitment of trained teachers against certain vacancies. 5. In the facts of the case, we are not persuaded to entertain this matter as public interest litigation. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. 6. If petitioners are so advised they may prefer appropriate writ petition seeking enforcement of their own rights or they may approach the Apex Court through appropriate proceeding, if so advised. perwez (Shiva Kirti Singh, J.)
