IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.2442 of 2010 REKHA KUMARI Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2. 17.08.2010 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and the learned Counsel for the State. Aggrieved by the appointment of respondent no. 7 on the post of Anganwari Sevika, Geram Panchayat Sangh (Centre No. 32) under Ghoghardiha Block in the district of Madhubani the petitioner is stated to have filed a representation before the District Magistrate which it is submitted is still pending or at least the petitioner is not aware what has happened to the same. A counter affidavit has been filed on behalf of the official respondents disputing the contention of the petitioner with regard to the illegality in the appointment of respondent no. 7. There is however no statement in the counter affidavit that any hearing was given to the petitioner and respondent no. 7 before final adjudication. The stand of the respondent in their counter affidavit without final adjudication after hearing concerned parties and passing of a reasoned order is of no consequence. The application is disposed with a direction to the District Magistrate Madhubani to decide the representation of the petitioner after hearing all concerned including respondent no. 7 by a reasoned and speaking order within a maximum period of three months from the date of receipt and/or presentation of a copy of this order. The writ application stands disposed. Snkumar/- (Navin Sinha,J.)
