IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA LPA No.141 of 2011 ASHOK RAM, Son of Late Suresh Ram, Resident of Village + Post Office – Alam Nagar, P.S. Alam Nagar, District Madhepura. ……….Appellant/Petitioner Versus 1.THE STATE OF BIHAR. 2.The Director, Animal Husbandry, Bihar, Patna. 3.The Regional Director, Animal Husbandry Central Area, Patna. ………..Respondents/Respondents ----------- 04/- 15/04/2011 Heard learned counsel for the appellant and learned counsel for the State. The service of the appellant was terminated on the ground that appointment was illegal as it was by the Regional Director of Animal Husbandry Department who had no power to appoint on the post in question. Learned writ court has relied upon a decision of the Supreme Court in a similar case from this State wherein the Apex Court has held that at the relevant time necessary power of appointment was not vested in the Regional Director. Learned counsel for the appellant submits that for such illegal appointment the appellant was not responsible and he had worked for about four years. Considering that the appointment was made by an authority who had no power, we find no grounds to interfere with the order of the writ court refusing to grant relief to the appellant. Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed. Praveen/ ( Shiva Kirti Singh, J.) ( Akhilesh Chandra, J.)
