THE STATE OF BIHAR THROUGH THE CHIEF SECRETARY, GOVERNMENT OF BIHAR, PATNA 2. THE COMMISSIONER –CUM- SECRETARY, REVENUE AND LAND REFORMS DEPARTMENT, GOVERNMENT OF BIHAR, PATNA 3. THE SECRETARY, PERSONNEL AND ADMINISTRATIVE REFORMS DEPARTMENT, GOVERNMENT OF BIHAR, PATNA 4. THE SECRETARY, FINANCE DEPARTMENT, BIHAR, PATNA 5. THE DISTRICT MAGISTRATE, SITAMARHI 6. THE NAZARAT DEPUTY COLLECTOR, SITAMARHI ………………………………………………………………………….RESPONDENTS *********** 2 29/04/2011 It is very unfortunate that the petitioner who was selected for appointment in the Collectariat at Sitamarhi could not get his appointment letter as it is stated as follows in paragraph 4 (page 5) of the counter affidavit. “The petitioner of this writ petition i.e. Shri Samarjeet Suman had also submitted his application with his work experience certificate and educational qualification certificate. As per criteria fixed by the Committee, the petitioner obtained 5.00 marks and came in seniority at Sl. No. 27 in the merit list so he was selected for appointment against the post mentioned above subject to condition that the appointment letter would be issued after due verification of work experience certificates from the concerned Department and District.” 2 The respondent no. 5 i.e. the District Magistrate, Sitamarhi or any other Officer deputed by the District Magistrate would be the person responsible for getting the verification done. The appointment was of the year 2005 and till today i.e. in the year 2011, the verification has not been done, which is shocking to this Court. I, thus direct that the District Magistrate, Sitamarhi should ensure that the work experience certificate etc. should be verified immediately and proper orders may be passed within a period of four months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order before him. This application is disposed of with the aforesaid observations and directions. Anand ( Sheema Ali Khan, J. )
