IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.13361 of 2007 Rekha Kumari, Wife of Birendra Kumar, Resident of Village Rajachak, P.O. Bidauli, P.S. Bhagwanganj, District Patna. -------- Petitioner Versus 1. The State of Bihar. 2. The District Magistrate, Patna. 3. The Deputy Development Commissioner, Patna. 4. The District Welfare Officer, Patna. 5. The Child Development Project Officer, Masaurhi (Patna). 6. Smt. Munaka Devi, Mukhiya, Gram Panchayat Dewariya, Masaurhi (Patna). 7. Jan Sewak, Gram Panchayat, Masaurhi (Patna). 8. Smt. Rita Devi, Wife of Anil Kumar, Resident of Village Rajachak, P.O. Bedauli, P.S. Bhagwanganj, District Patna. ---------- Respondents ----------- 2 18.12.2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State. The prayer of the petitioner in this writ application reads as follows:- “1(a) To show-cause the Respondent concerned as to why not the Petitioner has been preferred to Respondent 8 in the selection of Anganbari Sevika for the centre situated in Gram Panchayat Dewariya in the district of Patna, who is fulfilled the criteria, and also selected by the Respondent concerned i.e. 6 and 7 fixed by the State Govt. better than the Respondent-8. (b) To direct the Respondents 2 concern to consider the candidature of the petitioner for the Anganbari Sevika fresh.” With reference to the aforementioned reliefs, counsel for the petitioner would submit that the petitioner intends to move the Collector of the District by filing a compact representation. In the opinion of this court, recourse chosen by the petitioner seems to be correct inasmuch as the scheme for appointment on the post of Anganbari Sevika itself envisages the redressal of grievance pertaining to selection/appointment on the post of Anganbari Sevika in the first instance by the Collector of the District. That being so, this court would give liberty to the petitioner to file a compact representation which, if filed along with this order, will be disposed within the time limit fixed by the State Government in the Circular dated 10.12.2009 by a reasoned order after affording opportunity of hearing to the petitioner, respondent no. 8 and the representative of concerned gram panchayat. With the aforementioned observations and 3 directions, this writ application is disposed of. Rsh (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
