IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.10799 of 2010 1. UMESH THAKUR S/O LT.

THE REGIONAL DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF EDUCATION, TIRHUT DIVISION, MUZAFFARPUR 4. THE REGIONAL EDUCATION OFFICER, KANTI, DISTT.- MUZAFFARPUR 5. THE DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT OF EDUCATION, MUZAFFARPUR 6. THE PRINCIPAL, TULSI MIDDLE SCHOOL KALIBARI ROAD, MUSHAHARI, DISTT.- MUZAFFARPUR ----------- 2 10/03/2011 Since chargesheet has already been served upon the petitioner, let the disciplinary proceeding be expedited and taken to its logical end. No interference is warranted in the suspension order at this stage. The Enquiry Officer will decide on the basis of evidence whether the petitioner had any responsibility towards the claim in this case as the concerned government employee died as far back as in 1981 and none of the claim has been settled even in the year 2011. The decision to suspend the petitioner is a right step taken in this regard but in the opinion of the Court the persons who were responsible - 2 - prior to the petitioner should also be dealt with for which the District Magistrate should look into the matter. This writ application is dismissed. AMIN/ (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
