STATE ADVISORY COMMITTEE CONSTITUTED UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF BIHAR REORGANISATION ACT, 2000 THROUGH ITS CHAIRMAN, IRRIGATION DEPARTMENT, BAILEY ROAD, PATNA. …………………RESPONDENTS. ----------- 3 06.10.2010 Heard learned counsel for the State of Bihar, State of Jharkhand and the Advisory Committee. No one appears for the petitioner. From the order dated 15.10.2009, it appears that as the petitioner was going to 2 superannuate on 31st January, 2010 she challenged a notification of the Health Department dated 30.07.2009, by which her services were allocated to the Jharkhand State. In view of the proximity of date of her superannuation, this Court directed the respondents to file counter affidavit in the case and also stayed the operation of the said notification of the Health Department dated 30.07.2009. Thus, it appears that the petitioner remain the employee of the State of Jharkhand and has superannuated as such. In the circumstances, the writ application has apparently become infructuous and the same is disposed of as such. Learned counsel for the State of Bihar informs this Court that after the interim order of this Court the cadre of the petitioner was reverted back in the service of State of Bihar and she continued as such. Obviously, petitioner will be entitled to all retiral benefits from the State of Bihar. Arvind/ ( J. N. Singh, J.)
