IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.14588 of 2007 Amit Kumar, son of late Radha Sharan Singh, resident of Village Haripur, P.S. Gogari, Jamalpur, Dist. Khagaria. ------- Petitioner Versus 1. The State of Bihar. 2. The Commissioner cum Secretary, Human Resources Development Department, Bihar, Patna. 3. The District Compassionate Appointment Committee, Khagaria, through its Chairman. 4. The District Magistrate, Khagaria. 5. The District Superintendent of Education, Khagaria. --------- Respondents ----------- 4 24.11.2011 Having heard learned counsel for the parties and taking into account that the petitioner has been offered appointment on compassionate ground and has also accepted it, there would be no need now to go into the question as to whether the petitioner ought to have been appointed against a higher post or against prescribed pay-scale, inasmuch as, an appointment on compassionate ground has to be made only against an existing vacancy. This aspect of the matter has been explained by the Full Bench of this Court in the case of The State of Bihar & Ors. Vs. Rajeev Ran Vijay Kumar reported in 2010(3)PLJR 294 and, therefore, this Court would find no flaw in the order of appointment of the petitioner on the post of Panchayat Shikshak. 2 That being so, this application is wholly misconceived and is, accordingly, dismissed.
