IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.8484 of 2006 KUMARI PREMLATA Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2 6.5.2008 The petitioner has filed this writ application for a direction on the respondents in particularly the Panchayat Secretary to issue a letter of appointment to the petitioner. The petitioner claims that there were 22 posts of Shiksha Mitra in Akhtiyarpur Sehan Panchayat. The petitioner applied for the post. She said that she had a B.A. (Hons.) degree in Home Science with first division. It is the claim of the petitioner that she was selected in a meeting held in September, 2005 by a resolution of the Panchayat Samiti. However, no appointments were made by the Panchayat Secretary or the Panchayat Samiti and as such the petitioner claims that she should be appointed as a Shiksha Mitra. In this case the selection may or may not have been made by the Panchayat Samiti but since the alleged selection was made sometime in the year 2006 it would not be proper for the Court to ask the Panchayat Samiti/Panchayat Secretary to make appointments on the post of Shiksha Mitra since the posts now are no longer in existence, after enactment of Bihar Panchayat Primary Teachers (Employment and Service Conditions) Rules, 2006, which came into effect on 1.7.2006. This writ application is accordingly dismissed. Sanjay (Sheema Ali Khan, J.)
