IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.2338 of 2007 1. Anil Kumar, son of Shri Muktinath Yadav, Resident of Village Tharbitta, Post Office Tharbittha, Police Station Kishanpur, District Supaul. 2. Vandana Kumari, Wife of Shri Shambhu Kumar, Resident of Village Kachi Pakki Muzaffarpur, Post Office Ramana, Police Station Sadar, District Muzaffarpur. ----- Petitioners Versus 1. The Vice-Chancellor, Rajendra Agricultural University, Pusa, Post Office Pusa, District Samastipur. 2. The Director, Extension, Education, Rajendra Agricultural University, Pusa, Post Office Pusa, District Samastipur. -------- Respondents ----------- 2 10.11.2010 No one appears on behalf of the petitioners. Counsel for the University is present and has filed his counter affidavit, a copy whereof was served on the counsel for the petitioners on 2.11.2010. The relief prayed by the petitioners in this writ application, being as follows:- “1. That this writ application is for quashing the Letter No.63 dated 31.3.2006 which was issued under the signature of the Director Extension, Education, Rajendra Agricultural University, Pusa, District Samastipur by which the petitioners were terminated without any notice and without any show cause. The petitioners further pray that a direction may be given to the authorities concerned to re-instate the 2 services of the petitioners on their suitable post as they were working. The petitioners further pray that a direction may be given to give salary to the petitioners which are due. The petitioners further pray to quash the impugned order which was passed by the authorities concerned who was arbitrarily terminated the petitioners from their service without any complaint from any corner and without any rhyme or reason.” in fact, runs contrary to their own terms and conditions of the engagement, which was wholly contractual in nature. All that has therefore been done by the University by the impugned order is to work out the said terms and conditions of the contractual appointment of the petitioners and that too after undergoing the regular process of selection in which the petitioners could not succeed on account of their being placed much below in the merit list. That being so, this Court would find no merit in this application and the same is dismissed accordingly. Rsh (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
