1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF HIMACHAL PRADESH, SHIMLA CWP No. 3587 of 2010. Date of decision: 26.7.2010 Bhadri Devi ….. Petitioner. Vs. State of H.P. and Ors. …. Respondents. Coram The Hon’ble Mr. Justice Kurian Joseph, Chief Justice. The Hon’ble Mr. Justice Kuldip Singh, Judge. For the Petitioner : Mr. Avinash Jaryal, Advocate. For the Respondents : Mr. R.K.Sharma, Sr. Additional Advocate General, for respondents No.1 to 3. Justice Kurian Joseph, C.J. (Oral) The appointment of the petitioner as Anganwari Helper at Angawari Centre, Mangloa is under challenge. At the outset, it has been submitted that respondent No.4 is already working as cook. According to the petitioner she does not belong to feeder area of ward No.3. We are also informed that the calculation of the income of the family of the petitioner is not correct. The brother of the petitioner has four children and has a separate family. Despite service of notice, there is no appearance on behalf of 4th respondent. Learned Sr. Addl. Advocate General submits that the petitioner had suppressed the correct income of his brother in the joint family and hence the impugned order was properly passed. We are afraid that this contention cannot be appreciated. As already stated above, the income of the brother cannot be taken for calculating the income of the family since brother is already married and having a separate family of four children. At any rate, the 4th respondent who is from the other feeding area has no locus standi to challenge the appointment 2 of the petitioner. For the above reason, the impugned order is set aside. The petition stands disposed of, so also the pending application, if any. (Justice Kurian Joseph) Chief Justice July 26, 2010 (Justice Kuldip Singh), (sks/grs) Judge.
