IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.12097 of 2006 Navin Kumar, son of Sri Mukund Prasad Thakur, resident of village + P.O. Manikpur, P.S. Sahkund, District Bhagalpur … Petitioner Versus 1. The State Of Bihar 2. The Collector, Bhagalpur 3. The District Superintendent of Education, Bhagalpur 4. The Mukhiya, Gram Panchayat, Jagria P.S. Sahkund, District Bhagalpur 5. The Headmaster, Govt. Middle School, Manikpur, P.S. Sahkund, District Bhagalpur 6. Brajendra Kumar, son of Sri Mritunjay Pd. Singh, resident of village Shahjadpur, P.S. Sahkund, District Bhagalpur … Respondents ----------- 2. 30.6.2011 No one appears for the petitioner. Counsel for the State and respondent no.6 are present. This application relating to acceptance of joining of the petitioner on the post of Shiksha Mitra has definitely become infructuous, inasmuch as the post of Shiksha Mitra stands abolished with effect from 1.7.2006. This writ application in fact was filed on 27.9.2006 and therefore, the prayer of the petitioner as with regard to acceptance of his joining on the post of Shiksha Mitra cannot be allowed in view of abolition of the post of Shiksha Mitra. As with regard to the remaining prayer of the petitioner to call for 2 appointment letter of respondent no.6 and quash the same as he had sought to replace the petitioner on 18.2.2006 on post of Shikshamitra, the writ application filed on 27.9.2006 by which time respondent no.6 has already been absorbed on the post of Panchayat Shikshak w.e.f. 1.7.2006 would also not be maintainable on the ground of delay in filing such writ application. None the less for this limited relief, the petitioner can agitate his grievance before the District Teachers Appellate Authority, Bhagalpur which in view of the clarificatory Circular of the State Government dated 14.5.2009 has been vested with powers to examine and decide complaints arising out of selection, appointment and removed of Shikshamitra. Be that as it may, when the counsel for the petitioner has also not appeared, this Court has no option but to dismiss this writ application as not pressed. It is ordered accordingly.
