IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No. 5534 of 2005 SHIV KUMAR SINGH & ANR Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 06. 17.03.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the counsel appearing for the State. Petitioner’s grievance is that in response to the advertisement published on 15.12.2003, for empanelment of his name in the district panel of Vaishali, he had filed this Application. His name was there in the earlier panel of the year 1995. But for no specific reason, his name was not empanelled on the basis of this panel prepared in the district of Vaishali. Subsequently, appointments have been made against the vacancies in the year 2007, on the basis of 2003 panel. Counsel for the State has produced an Order, dated 17.11.2009, passed in C.W.J.C. No. 366 of 2008, whereby the Respondents were directed to scrap the panel of the year 2003, which as per the allegation of the writ petitioner, was full of infirmity and a direction was issued to prepare a fresh panel, following the merit position of the applicants. Considering the fact that allegation 2 regarding infirmity in the panel of the year 2003 has already been considered by this Court and a direction has also been issued for scraping it, the petitioner’s prayer is also being allowed, giving direction to the Respondents to consider his name also for inclusion in the panel of the year 2003, considering his seniority and merit. With the aforesaid observations, this Writ Application is disposed of. SKM (Mridula Mishra, J.)
