During the course of hearing, it has come out that the petitioner has filed a representation against the impugned order dated 5.9.2011 before the Director, Secondary Education, with respect to which it is stated that a report has been sought for from the Regional Deputy Director of Education, Munger Division, Munger, but the same has not yet been submitted. In view of the fact that the petitioner has 2 himself approached the Director, Secondary Education, it would be appropriate that the matter is expeditiously decided at his level. The writ application is, accordingly, disposed of with a direction that the Director, Secondary Education shall consider and dispose of the representation filed by the petitioner within a period of two months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order after hearing the affected parties. Since the petitioner relies upon the earlier adjudication of the matter between the petitioner and respondent No.5 by the office order dated 2.8.2008 of the District Education Officer, Lakhisarai, which was not challenged by the respondent No.5 at least till 25.7.2011 when his another writ petition being C.W.J.C. No.5870/2008 was dismissed as withdrawn by the order of this Court with liberty to challenge the said order dated 2.8.2008, it is directed that status quo, as of today, shall be maintained until the decision is taken by the Director, Secondary Education.
