IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA MJC No.92 of 2008 LAKSHMAN DAS & ORS Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 3. 19.1.2010 The petitioners claim wilful violation of the order dated 23.6.2006 under contempt of this Court. In the said order, this Court took note of the fact that vacancies of class-IV posts in the Samastipur District have already been advertised and thus left it open to the petitioners to apply for the same without issuing any direction to the authorities to consider their cases, except if the question of age relaxation arises that was to be considered in accordance with law. In the show cause filed on behalf of the opposite party No.3, District Magistrate, Samastipur, it is stated that appointments have been made in accordance with Government Notification No.639 dated 16.3.2006 issued by the Personnel and Administrative Reforms Department and it was found that the claims of the petitioners were not considerable on the basis of the said notification. In the above circumstances, no case under the contempt jurisdiction of this Court is made out and the contempt application is, accordingly, - 2 - dismissed. However the petitioner, if aggrieved by the action of the authorities, may assail the same in appropriate proceedings. VPS ( Ramesh Kumar Datta, J. )
