Heard counsel for the petitioners and counsel for the State. The prayer of the petitioners in this writ application reads as follows:- “1) That in this application the petitioners pray for issuance of the writ of certiorari quashing the appointment of respondent no. 9, 10 and 11 for the post of Sevika (respondent no. 9 and 10) and Sahaika (respondent no. 11) in Purainia Gram Panchayat Anchal- Mainatand, District- West 2 Champaran.” With reference to the aforementioned reliefs, counsel for the petitioners would submit that the petitioners intend to move the Collector of the District by filing a compact representation. In the opinion of this court, recourse chosen by the petitioners seem to be correct inasmuch as the scheme for appointment on the post of Anganbari Sevika/ Sahaika itself envisages the redressal of grievance pertaining to selection/appointment on the post of Anganbari Sevika/ Sahaika in the first instance by the Collector of the District. That being so, this court would give liberty to the petitioners 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 petitioners, respondent no. 9, 10 and 11 and the representative of concerned gram panchayat. 3 With the aforementioned observations and directions, this writ application is disposed of. kanchan (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
