Amanullah, advocate ----------- 3 08-07-2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners and learned counsel for the Railways and its officials who are respondents. After hearing the parties, we are satisfied that 2 there is no good reason to take a different view in this writ petition than what has been taken already by another Division Bench of this court in its order dated 17-5-2010 whereby an identical writ petition bearing CWJC No. 8628/2010 was dismissed after considering all the relevant facts. It may be noticed that the other writ petition was against the same very judgement which is a common judgement of the Central Administrative Tribunal, Patna Bench, Patna passed in respect of three Original Applications which had been preferred by several similarly situated persons. All the Original Applications raise same issue of facts and laws. It has further been brought to our notice that the aforesaid Division Bench order dated 17-5-2010 was followed subsequently in two other cases and hence, two other writ petitions arising out of the same impugned order have already been dismissed. Accordingly, this writ petition is dismissed. BKS/- (Shiva Kirti Singh, J.) (Birendra Prasad Verma, J.)
