IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Civil Writ Jurisdiction Case No.3123 of 2010 Pramod Kumar & Ors Versus The State Of Bihar & Ors ---------------------------------- with Civil Writ Jurisdiction Case No.10882 of 2009 Dhananjay Kumar Nirala & Ors Versus The State Of Bihar & Ors ---------------------------------- 7. 30.08.2011 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioners and the learned Counsel for the State. Mr. Mukhopadhyay for the petitioners submits that in so far as the substantial relief for taking into account the past services rendered under the central government before appointment under the State Government and not to treat the petitioners as appointees amenable to the new contributory pension scheme by giving them continuity of service is concerned, relief has been granted by notification dated 27.6.2011 published in the Bihar Gazette and therefore the writ applications have become infructuous. He however submits that pending decision of their request, the respondents notwithstanding that the petitioners had submitted their joining made them wait for posting. They are therefore entitled to salary for the period they were waiting for posting. If the petitioners had submitted their joining and the respondents did not take work from them as alleged the petitioners may represent before the authorities when it is expected shall be considered in accordance with the law preferably within a maximum period of three months from the date of receipt of such representation. The writ applications are disposed as infructuous on the former issue with the liberty as aforesaid on the latter. Snkumar/- (Navin Sinha,J.)
