IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.15950 of 2009 1. FEKAN BARI S/O LATE SINGHESHWAR BARI VILL- PATEPUR, P.S. PATEPUR, DISTT. VAISHALI Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR 2. THE DISTRICT MAGISTRATE VAISHALI AT HAZIPUR 3. THE SUPERINTENDENT OF POLICE VAISHALI AT HAZIPUR 4. THE CIRCLE OFFICER PATEPUR CIRCLE (BLOCK), VAISHALI AT HAZIPUR 5. THE OFFICER-IN-CHARGE P.S. PATEPUR, VAISHALI AT HAZIPUR ----------- 2. 23.12.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. The petitioner was placed under suspension by an order dated 14.3.2009 in contemplation of departmental proceeding. The ground urged is that no charges have been framed within the period of three months much less within the period of seven months from that date as required by Rule 9(7) of the Bihar CCA Rules, 2005. The issue of applicability of the time limitations under Rule 9(7) of the Rules whether it be the initial period of three months or the full period of seven months when both grounds appeared to be available to the petitioner of this case from his pleadings stands settled by the Full Bench of this Court in the case of State of Bihar v. Gyan Kumar Ram, 2009(4) PLJR 272. Let the disciplinary authority pass a reasoned and speaking order with regard to the suspension of the petitioner in accordance with law as laid down by this Court within a maximum period of three weeks from the date of receipt and/or production of a copy of this order before him. This writ application stands disposed. AKS/ (Navin Sinha, J.)
