IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.3069 of 2008 Vidyalaya Siksha Samiti through its Chairman, namely Ram Chandra Roy, Naveen Prathmik Vidyalaya, Chaknoor Ward No. 7, P.S.-Rahmatpur, Distt.-Samastipur. Versus 1. The State Of Bihar through the Chief Secretary, Govt. of Bihar, Patna. 2. Commissioner-cum-Secretary, Human Resource Development Department, Govt. of Bihar Patna. 3. Director, Primary Education, Bihar Patna. 4. District Magistrate, Samastipur. 5. District Superintendent of Education, Samastipur. 6. Block Education Extension Officer, Samastipur. ----------- 2. 27.06.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner. The prayer is for a direction to the respondents to take appropriate action in the matter and proper functioning of new Primary School at Chaknoor, Ward No. 7, Samastipur including filling up the posts of Primary Teacher, implementing mid- day meal scheme and to release the funds earmarked for the construction of building of the said Primary School. The grievance of the petitioner is genuine. This Court however feels that it involves public interest and the respondents ought to have shown due sensitivity to this issue. On query from the Court learned counsel for the petitioner submits that though the writ petition was filed on 8.2.2008 with service of two copies of the petitions upon the respondent State, the presumption is that the respondent authorities 2 have been made aware of the nature and grievances but till today according to him the situation remains the same as per his instructions. Though learned counsel for the State is present, no counter affidavit is on record and he does not have instructions and prays for time. The matter being of an urgent nature this Court feels it unnecessary to prolong and delay the case and in view of the nature of the order which this Court proposes to pass, no useful purpose would be served to give time to the respondents to file counter affidavit. This Court has enumerated the prayer of the petitioner above. The writ petition is disposed off with a direction to the respondent no. 4 to immediately and with due diligence look into the matter as raised in the writ petition and take appropriate action and also consequential measures so that the genuine grievance of the petitioner with regard to the proper functioning of the school does not remain. If he feels that for redressal of some of the grievances the appropriate authority is the State Government then it shall be his duty to take up the matter with the said authority so that whatever scheme the Government is operating under the existing policy of the Government are also 3 implemented with regard to the school in question. Let the petitioner file a copy of the writ petition and a separate representation for ready reference before the said respondent no. 4, within four weeks from today alongwith a copy of this order. If the same is filed the respondent no. 4 shall act as per the directions given in this order. It is made clear that appropriate action shall be required to be taken by the respondents latest within a period of three months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. The writ petition stands disposed off with the aforesaid directions and observations. Anand Kr. ( Ahsanuddin Amanullah, J.)
