IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.15880 of 2007 MINA CHAURASIA & ANR Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2/ 4/7/2008. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State. The grievance is of non-selection on the post of a Panchayat Siksha Mitra when allegedly a wrong appointment came to be made on 3.5.2005 to the prejudice of the petitioner. This contract was for a period of 11 months ending on 3.4.2006. According to the petitioner himself he took no steps in that regard during the subsistence of his cause of action during those 11 months when he filed his first representation in December, 2007. In the meantime, on 1.7.2006 the Bihar Panchayat Primary Teachers (Appointment and Service Conditions) Rules, 2006 have come into force prescribing the eligibility and procedures for appointment on the post of Panchayat Teachers only whereafter the present writ application has been filed in December, 2007. Clearly the petitioner had not surviving cause of action on the day that the new Rules came into force. There is no merit in the writ application. The same is dismissed. KC ( Navin Sinha,J )
