THE MUKHIYA, GRAM PANCHAYAT RAJ, IBRAHIMPUR, BARH, PATNA. 6. THE PANCHAYAT SECRETARY, GRAM PANCHAYAT RAJ, IBRAHIMPUR, BARH, PATNA. …………RESPONDENTS. ----------- 2 15.11.2011 Petitioner’s initial grievance in this writ application was in respect of his arrears of salary not paid since his date of joining as Shiksha Mitra on 01.03.2006. It is contended that the petitioner later on became Panchayat Teacher in terms of the Rules and continued in the school. However, through supplementary affidavit documents have been produced to show that in 2010 petitioner was transferred to his initial school where his joining was not accepted by the headmaster on the ground that he has not received the said transfer order. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that, in fact, the petitioner was not relieved from his place of deputation on account of which he could not join the initial school after his transfer. The matter relates to the posting of the 2 petitioner and payment of his salary. Therefore, petitioner is directed to file a representation before the District Programme Officer who shall hold an inquiry with regard to the appointment and continuance of the petitioner and his due arrears of salary. If the District Programme Officer finds that the petitioner had, in fact, become Panchayat Teacher and continued in service thereafter under the Rules, he shall see to it that the petitioner is paid his arrears of salary and gets a proper posting in the school immediately so that petitioner may perform his duties and may start getting his current salary. After inquiry, the District Programme Officer shall pass necessary orders on the representation of the petitioner in accordance with law, positively within two months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. The writ application is disposed of with the aforesaid observations and directions. Arvind/ ( J.N. Singh, J.)
