THE DISTRICT PROGRAMME OFFICER-CUM-DISTRICT WELFARE OFFICER ARWAL ----------- 2/ 21/09/2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State. The challenge to the order dated 7.1.2010 of the District Magistrate, Arwal removing the petitioner from the post of Angan Bari Sevika on alleged grounds of deficiency in service is that the authority to do so lay in the District Programme Officer and the District Magistrate was the appellate authority. The final order by the appellate authority deprives the petitioner of the remedy of appeal. This aspect of the matter has already been considered by this Court in C.W.J.C. No.3837/10, disposed on 20.092010. For like reasons as discussed therein this writ application is allowed in similar terms with similar - 2 - directions. The order dated 7.1.2010 is quashed. The writ application stands allowed. KC ( Navin Sinha, J.)
