IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.6658 of 2009 DHARMA NATH MISHRA Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2. 22.5.2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and the counsel for the State. The grievance of the petitioner in this writ application is for grant of ACP. Such ACP the petitioner claims on the ground of his being in Government service. There is no difficulty in finding out that the petitioner is an employee of Lalit Narayan Mishra Institute of Economic Development and Social Change, which is an autonomous Institute. Such letter of appointment of the petitioner dated 26.4.1977 would by itself go to show that the permanent appointment of the petitioner was made in the said Institute. Thereafter if the petitioner was sent on deputation in the Cabinet Secretariat and was attached with the Chief Minister’s office, that will not make him an employee of the State Government as his permanent appointment and lien would continue with the Institute. If that be so, the petitioner cannot claim ACP as a matter of right unless the Institute 2 decides and gives ACP to each and every employee of the Institute. That being so, this Court would not find any merit in this application and it is accordingly dismissed. (Mihir Kumar Jha,J.) Surendra/
