IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC NO.10656 OF 2004 BISHNU CHAND SINGH, SON OF LATE BALDEV SINGH, RESIDENT OF VILLAGE JALALPUR, POST OFFICE AND POLICE STATION KARGAHAR, DISTRICT ROHTAS ………………………………………………PETITIONER VERSUS 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR 2. THE SECRETARY, HIGHER EDUCATION, GOVERNMENT OF BIHAR, PATNA 3. VEER KUNWAR SINGH UNIVERSITY, ARA, THROUGH ITS VICE CHANCELLOR 4. THE VICE CHANCELLOR, VEER KUNWAR SINGH UNIVERSITY, ARA 5. THE REGISTRAR, VEER KUNWAR SINGH UNIVERSITY, ARA 6. THE PRINCIPAL, SHERSHAH COLLEGE, SASARAM 7. GANGA SAGAR SINGH, SON OF SHRI JAGNARAIN SINGH, ASSISTANT, SHERSHAH COLLEGE, SASARAM, ROHTAS ………………………………………………………………………….RESPONDENTS ******** 3 08/12/2010 The petitioner is aggrieved by the fact that one Ganga Sagar Singh, respondent no. 7 has been allowed to function as a Head Clerk in Sher Sah College, Sasaram. It is alleged that he was related to the Principal of the college and therefore, he was given this benefit although he was not a regularly appointed Head Clerk. The petitioner claims that he was regularly recommended as a Head Clerk by the Governing Body of the College in its meeting dated 07.08.1978. It appears that respondent no. 7 has filed Title Suit No. 33 of 1990 in the Court of the 1st Munsif, Sasaram challenging the order of the Finance Officer of the University, who had written to the Principal of the college to promote the petitioner to act as a Head Clerk. Several allegations have 2 been made in the writ application. Counsel for the petitioner and this Court has no way of knowing whether respondent no 7, Ganga Sagar Singh is still continuing as the Head Clerk in the college concerned. However, the Principal of the college is directed to look into the matter and take action as per the letter. The mere filing of the title suit would not mean that he should be allowed to work as a Head Clerk, when he is not a regularly appointed Head Clerk of the college. The petitioner may make a representation before the Principal of the College as well as the Registrar of the Veer Kunwar Singh University, Ara who will pass order within a period of three months from the date of filing of the representation. This writ application is disposed of with the aforesaid observations and directions. Anand ( Sheema Ali Khan, J. )
