IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA MJC No.1879 of 2010 KRISHNA MURARI . Versus STATE OF BIHAR & ORS. . ----------- 3/ 23/2/2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner. No show cause has been filed on behalf of the opposite parties. It is submitted that notwithstanding the expiry of six months during which the departmental proceedings have not been concluded the suspension has still not been revoked. The Court had directed that the suspension shall stand revoked on expiry of six months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of the court order if the proceedings were not completed within that time. If that period has expired and the proceedings have not been concluded, the suspension automatically stands revoked by the order of the Court and no formal orders of the State Authorities are required. The contempt application stands disposed in the aforesaid terms to be complied with by the Principal Secretary, Department of Personnel and Administrative Reforms forthwith. If the petitioner is compelled to approach the Court for the same purpose again, the matter may be viewed rather seriously. 2 Insofar as the manner in which the period of suspension is to be treated are matters to be decided in the final order in the departmental proceeding. The application stands disposed. K C ( Navin Sinha, J.)
