The Child Development Project Officer, Rajauli, Nawada. 5. The Mukhiya, Gram Panchayat Lengura, P.S. Rajauli, District Nawada……………..Respondents ----------- 2 11.02.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned counsel for the State. Learned counsel for the petitioner raises the question of violation of Principles of Natural Justice committed by the Collector, Nawada while passing the impugned order (Annexure-3) by which engagement of the petitioner as Anganwari Sevika has been cancelled. Compliance of Principles of Natural Justice is an integral part of the decision making process. If the same stands violated, the decision itself stands vitiated. Therefore, petitioner shall file a petition before the Collector, Nawada for recall of the said order contained in Memo No.32 dated 2 07.01.2008. If the Collector finds that, before the said order was passed, petitioner was not heard, he shall be well advised to recall the said order, hear the petitioner and thereafter pass a fresh reasoned order in accordance with law. The decision must be taken in this regard within the time frame fixed by the guidelines for disposal of appeals by the Collector. The writ application is disposed of with the aforesaid observations and directions. BT (J. N. Singh, J.)
