IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.2258 of 2009 MD.ALIMULLAH & ORS Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2. 17.2.2009 Heard Mr. Shivendra Kishore, learned counsel for the petitioners and the learned counsel for the State. After some argument Mr. Shivendra Kishore realizes that if any person, who is capable of taking a decision as with regard to issuance of experience certificate in respect of some work done in Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan through a voluntary non-Government Organization, can be only the Principal Secretary of the Department. Since the petitioners have not approached the Principal Secretary of the Department, they may, if so advised, approach him for doing needful. It is, however, made clear that this Court has not expressed any opinion on the merits of such claim of the petitioner with regard to grant of experience certificate nor this Court has rejected the reasons given by the District Superintendent of Education in the impugned order. If the petitioners approach the 2 Principal Secretary of the Department, he will take an appropriate decision in accordance with law, preferably within a period of three months from the date of filing of such a representation. This application, accordingly, stands disposed of. (Mihir Kumar Jha,J.) Surendra/
