WP(C) 5483/2009 BEFORE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE IA ANSARI Heard Mr. PK Talukdar, learned counsel for the petitioner, and Mr. I Gog oi, learned Standing Counsel, Social Welfare Department, for the respondent Nos. 1, 2, 3, 5 and 6. Heard also Mr. B Choudhury, learned Government Advocate, for the respondent Nos. 4 and 6, and Ms. F Begum, learned counsel for the responden t Nos. 8 and 9. The basic grievance of the petitioner in the present writ petition, made under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, is that respondent No. 8, who h as been appointed as Aanganwadi Worker, under 31 No. Ainsri Aanganwadi Center, i s not a local resident of village Ainsri. By filing affidavit-in-opposition, res pondent No. 8 has denied the allegation and asserts that the respondent No. 8 is a local resident of village Ainsri. It is, thus, clear that it is a disputed question of fact as to whether responde nt No. 8 is or is not a local resident of village Ainsri, which falls under Bogi nodi ICDS Project, in the district of Lakhimpur, Assam. Determination of such a disputed question of fact would require holding of roving inquiry and also recor ding of evidence, which is not appropriate in the facts and circumstances of the present case. In fact, in a similar situation, which arose in WP(C) No. 5864 of 2009, the Court disposed of the writ petition, on 09-03-2011, by permitting the petiti oner to make appropriate representation to the Director, Social Welfare Departme nt, Government of Assam, with further direction to the Director, Social Welfare Department, Government of Assam, to hear all the parties concerned and, then, ta ke a decision in accordance with law. Considering the matter in its entirety and in the interest of justice, t his writ petition too is disposed of with liberty granted to the petitioner that if the petitioner feels aggrieved by the appointment of respondent No. 8, she m ay make appropriate representation to Director, Social Welfare Department, Gover nment of Assam, and if such an application is made, the Director, Social Welfare Department, Government of Assam, shall hear all the parties concerned and, then , pass necessary order(s) in accordance with law. If the petitioner feels aggrie ved by the decision, which may be reached by the Director, Social Welfare Depart ment, Government of Assam, the petitioner shall remain at liberty to take recour se to such provisions of law as may be permissible.
