IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Miscellaneous Jurisdiction Case No.2176 of 2009 Dr.Prashant Kumar Verma Versus The State Of Bihar & Ors ---------------------------------- 3. 23.8.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. A show cause has been filed on behalf of the State stating therein that the order of this Court has been complied with by passing the necessary order. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that although the Department has implemented the part of the order but has not passed any final order for promotion of the petitioner to the higher post. Learned counsel for the State submits that on perusal of the order, as contained in Annexure 1, it would appear that this Court directed to treat the petitioner as Lecturer in the teaching service giving him all his dues from the date his immediate junior was given all the benefits. It is submitted that consequently the petitioner was treated as Lecturer in the teaching service and all the due benefits have been given. Learned counsel for the petitioner, however, submits that the second part of the direction of this Court is to consider his case for further promotion in case the petitioner has acquired any right for his consideration for further promotion and increment. The same has not been carried out. Learned counsel further submits that with respect to the grievance of the petitioner for promotion, a writ petition was filed vide CWJC No.12662 of - 2 - 2009, in which certain order was passed on 16.12.2009. The said application was disposed of. Considering the submission of the parties and in view of the averments made in this contempt application and the show cause as also the rejoinder to the show cause, I find that there is no merit in this contempt application. The same is, accordingly, dismissed. PNM (Shailesh Kumar Sinha, J.)
