SHRI RADHA KRISHNA SINGH YADAV, DISTRICT EDUCATION OFFICER, MUNGER …………………………………………………………………….OPPOSITE PARTIES ********* 3 21/07/2010 The petitioner has filed this contempt application on the ground that the order contained in Annexure-1 although complied with inasmuch as the petitioner’s promotion has been regularized from 1992, the consequential orders have not followed. Counsel for the petitioner submits that once the Special Director, Secondary Education and the Managing Committee of the School have passed orders to regularize the services of the petitioner, he must be paid the salary for the years that he has worked as Head Master in the said school. The Special Director, Secondary Education should pass adequate orders in order to ensure that the petitioner receives his salary and the arrears of salary. To start with, the Opposite Parties 2 to 4 2 should pay the current salary of the petitioner as is paid to other Head Masters of different Sanskrit schools. The arrears of salary should also be paid. The Opposite Parties 3 and 4 can pass an order for payment of the arrears of salary in instalments as it may not be possible to pay such a large amount in one instalment considering the fact that financial support is not received within time from the State Government for payment of salaries to teachers working in Sanskrit schools taken over by the Government. The order of payment of current salary should be passed within a period of two months from today. The instalments should be fixed by the Special Director, Secondary Education, Bihar, which should be paid within a period of one year on receipt of the order. This contempt application is disposed of with the aforesaid observations and directions. Anand ( Sheema Ali Khan, J. )
