IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.11363 of 2007 MOTILAL SINGH & ORS Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 3. 15.4.2010. Heard Mr. Anand Mohan Verma learned counsel for the petitioner, Mr. Pramod Kumar, learned Assisting Counsel to S.C.1 for the State. The petitioners who are eight in numbers have filed the writ petition for payment of their difference of salary for the period 1.1.1971 to 31.3.1973 together with admissible statutory interest thereon. A counter affidavit was filed on behalf of the District Superintendent of Education, Buxar and who in paragraph no.12 has very categorically mentioned that the admissible dues of all the petitioners have been paid except the petitioner no.2 Bholi Mishra for the reason that there is no such teacher working in the school in question as per the report of the Head Master dated 26.9.2007 placed at Annexure-A to the counter affidavit. An interlocutory application (I.A.No.3361 of 2010) has been filed by the petitioner no.2 seeking modification in his name as Bhola Nath Mishra. It is stated that Bholi Mishra who is son of Mukteshwar Mishra mentions his name as Bholi 2 Mishra though his official name is Bhola Nath Mishra and in support of the statement, petitioner no.2 has enclosed his identity card of the Election Commission of India, service book and pension payment order. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that mentioning of name of petitioner no.2 as Bholi Mishra in place of Bhola Nath Mishra is an unintended mistake and may be permitted to be corrected to save the petitioner no.2 from facing difficulties in realization of his genuine claim. Having considered the interlocutory application, the prayer made therein is allowed. The name of petitioner no.2 Bholi Mishra would be read as Bholi Mishra @ Bhola Nath Mishra son of Mukteshwar Mishra. Taking into consideration that the respondent District Superintendent of Education, Buxar has discharged his obligation in payment of the amounts in question with regard to the other benefits except petitioner no.2 Bhola Nath Mishra, no purpose would be served in keeping the writ petition pending and the same is disposed of with a direction to respondent no.5 the District Superintendent of Education, Buxar to make payment of the arrears of differential amount of salary 3 for the period 1.1.1971 to 31.3.1973 together with the admissible statutory interest thereon to the petitioner no.2 Bholi Mishra @ Bhola Nath Mishra within a period of three months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. The writ petition stands disposed of with the directions aforesaid. ahk (Jyoti Saran, J.)
