IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.5285 of 2009 SUJIT KUMAR SINGH & ORS Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2. 24.4.2009 Since the petitioners have statutory alternative remedy before the appellate authority constituted by the State Government under the rules regarding appointment of teachers as amended in 2008, this Court is not inclined to interfere in the matter. The writ application is disposed off with a direction that the petitioners, if so advised, may pursue their remedy before the appellate authority. It is clarified that the appellate authority shall not proceed on any assumption that this Court has declined to entertain the writ petition on merits. This Court has not gone into the merits of this matter. The appellate authority shall be obliged to decide the matter on merits by a reasoned and speaking order. P. Kumar (Navin Sinha, J.)
