THE SUPERINTENDENT OF POLICE, NALANDA, P.S AND DISTT- NALANDA ----------- 2. 22.1.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner, for the State of Bihar and for the State of Jharkhand. Multiple reliefs, to be considered for promotion, to the arrears of salary, as also entitlement for salary by grant of medical leave etc., and transfer of the service book from Jharkhand to the State of Bihar have been sought in this application. While the petitioner was working in the re- organized State of Jharkhand, he filed W.P.(S) No. 6328 of 2002, claiming certain of the aforesaid reliefs which came to be disposed on 2.7.2003 directing the Superintendent of 2 Police, Dhanbad to make an enquiry and dispose the representation. Learned counsel for the State of Jharkhand from Paragraph 20 of the writ application invites the attention of the Court that the Superintendent of Police, Dhanbad thereafter appears to have passed certain orders on 17.7.2004 and 23.7.2004. The orders have not been brought on record by the petitioner. He submits that it is possible that the order of the Jharkhand High Court stood complied with and it may have its implications on the present claim/claims of the petitioner. The petitioner has subsequently been transferred to the reorganized State of Bihar consequent to change of cadre. Any order of the Jharkhand High Court in the circumstances would continue to bind not only the State of Jharkhand but also the State of Bihar. Let the State of Bihar examine issues with regard to the disposal of the representations of the petitioner by the Superintendent of Police, Dhanbad dated 17.7.2004 and 23.7.2004 in light of the orders of the Jharkhand High Court and if there remains any further issues for resolution, let the State of Bihar examine matters for which it is expected that the State of Jharkhand shall adequately co-operate, so that they be resolved at an early date. If the Superintendent of Police, Dhanbad has 3 already considered matters and the petitioner has chosen not to assail the same, those issues shall continue to bind the State of Bihar. Let the same be done expeditiously preferably within a period of six months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order before the State of Bihar. The writ application stands disposed. P. Kumar (Navin Sinha, J.)
