IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.2766 of 2004 SANTOSH KUMAR & ORS Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2 3.2.2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State. The grievance of the petitioner in this writ application as with regard to the constitution of a Vidyalaya Siksha Samiti seems to be wholly misconceived. The life of such elected body in terms of Section 5 of the Bihar State Vidyalaya Siksha Samiti Act, 2000 is for a period of three years which has already come to an end on or after 13.2.2007. Moreover, the reference and reliance placed by the petitioner on the provision of the earlier rules Bihar Primary & Middle Education Rules, 1961 is also misconceived inasmuch as all these rules came to be repealed in the year 1976 after the enactment of 1976 Act taking over control of all the primary schools with effect from 1.1.1971. Be that as it may, this writ application on account of subsequent events and passage of time especially due to completion of tenure of the elected body has become infructuous and the same is accordingly dismissed.
