IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.2348 of 2009 JITENDRA PRASAD SHARMA & ORS Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2. 19.2.2009 Heard Mr. Narendra Kumar Jha, counsel for the petitioner and the counsel for the State. In the opinion of this Court the remedy for the petitioners against the impugned order terminating their service would lie before the District Appellate Tribunal which has been constituted to look into all aspects of service conditions of Panchayat Shikshak. The grievance of the petitioners that they were subjected to such an order of termination without show cause notice or that the Collector of the District had no such power to pass an order of termination can definitely be raised by the petitioner before the Tribunal and the Tribunal is expected to decide all the questions as may be raised by the petitioner. In fact the grievance of the petitioners also against the hurried enquiry can be a ground on which the Tribunal can, if it finds to be correct, set aside the entire action against the petitioners. It 2 will be, however, difficult for this Court to prejudge the issue when the matter is to be decided by the Tribunal. That being so, this Court without expressing any opinion on the merits of the claim of the petitioners would direct the petitioners to file their applications before the Tribunal within a period of one month from today, whereafter the Tribunal must pass an appropriate order within next three months. This application, accordingly, stands disposed of. (Mihir Kumar Jha,J.) Surendra/
