IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.359 of 2005 VIDYANAND PASWAN Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS 3 12.09.2008 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner is aggrieved by the appellate order dated 28.01.2004 at Annexure-12 upholding the order dated 18.02.2003 at Annexure-10 terminating his appointment. Two issues arise. The first is that the date on which the petitioner came to be appointed as a displaced person by the District Land Acquisition and Rehabilitation Officer, the Officer had no power to make such appointments. Additionally, in pursuance of his earlier writ petition preferred by the petitioner, the impugned order dated 28.01.2004 records a finding of fact from materials and documents that the petitioner was not, in fact, a displaced person of the Kosi Project and who alone were eligible for appointment as a measure of rehabilitation. To arrive at this conclusion the authority has held that though the petitioner claims to be displaced person of the year 1956-1960, his ‘displaced persons’ certificate was issued in 1987. This Court finds no reason to arrive at a different conclusion of the suspicion placed by the authority on such a belated certificate. There is no merit in this writ application. Accordingly, it is dismissed. Kundan (Navin Sinha, J.)
