Petitioner has retired from his service in July, 1992. His prayer is for directing the concerned authorities for granting senior selection grade since 1.4.1981 and second time bound promotion after completion of 25 years of his service, with all consequential benefits. Petitioner’s case is that in the similar matters this benefit has been allowed to similarly situated persons, but his representation filed before the R.R.D.E., Saran Division at Chapra, has remained undecided till now. Petitioner has made this prayer in the - 2 - light of order passed dated 16.7.2009 by the High Court in C.W.J.C. No. 8012 of 2009 (Braj Kishore Dwivedi Vs. State of Bihar and others). Since the petitioner has already retired, it is proper that he should file his representation before the District Education Officer, Gopalganj for considering his case and allowing him the benefit as claimed by him. The D.E.O. will consider the case of the petitioner in the light of the order dated 16.7.2009 passed by the High Court in the case of Braj Kishore Dwivedi Vs. State of Bihar and others. Representation filed by the petitioner must be disposed of within six weeks from the date of its filing with reasoned order and all consequential benefits should be allowed to the petitioner, in case he has filed his representation. This application is disposed of. DKS/ (Mridula Mishra, J.)
