Sangrampur, East Champaran, motihari. ----------- 4 1/12/2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State. Prayer of the petitioner in this writ application reads as follows:- “That this application is being filed for issuance of a writ preferably in the nature of Mandamus Commanding and directing the Respondents concerned to consider the case of the petitioners for their appointment as Anganbari Sevika/Sahayika under Gram Panchayat Raj Bhatwaliya of East Champaran District who are the most suitable candidates and ignoring their valid claim others candidate have been appointed illegally at the instance of the present Mukhiya and Panchayat Secretary in collusion with other Respondents.” Counsel for the petitioner would fairly submit that for the aforementioned relief the petitioner would be required to file a fresh representation as the earlier one filed by him did not contain all the necessary details or a written proof of its being received in the 2 office of the Collector. In the opinion of this Court, counsel seems to be correct. The Collector is the prescribed authority under the circular framed by the State Government and therefore if the petitioner would file a fresh representation with regard to the grievances raised in this writ application, the Collector of the district after giving an opportunity of hearing to the petitioner and the representative of concerned Gram Panchayat as also any other person likely to be adversely affected would pass a reasoned order preferably within a period of six months from the date of filling of such representation by the petitioner. With the aforementioned observation/direction this application is disposed of. Abhay Kumar (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
