IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA MJC No.3011 of 2005 MD.FAROOKH KHAN Versus STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- For the Petitioner : Mr. Vijayeshwar Prasad For the Respondents 1 to 4 : Mr. Awadhesh Kumar Pandey, G.A.VII ------------ P R E S E N T Hon'ble the Chief Justice & Hon'ble Mr. Justice Kishore K. Mandal ------------ Dated, the 23rd July, 2008. We heard counsel for the parties. The petitioner came up before this Court challenging the order of his dismissal in C.W.J.C. No. 4556 of 2000. The said writ petition after hearing the parties was allowed on 24th June, 2005. The order of dismissal was quashed and set aside. However, the respondents were permitted to proceed afresh with the disciplinary proceedings. 2. It appears that pursuant thereto the petitioner has been reinstated. As a matter of fact, to that extent, the petitioner does not have any grievance. His grievance is that he has not been paid the arrears of wages, although he has been reinstated. 3. Now, since the petitioner has been reinstated, we are not inclined to take any action against the respondents for any breach or disobedience of the order dated 24th June, 2005. However, we direct that, upon order of dismissal having been quashed and set aside, the petitioner shall be deemed to be in continuous service and arrears - 2 - of wages shall be paid to him from the date of the order of dismissal until reinstatement, if not paid so far, within one month from today. M.J.C. stands disposed of. R. M. Lodha, CJ Kishore K. Mandal, J AMIN/-
