IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Civil Writ Jurisdiction Case No.2138 of 2005 Akhil Bhartiya Rajak Sangh Versus The State Of Bihar & Ors For the Petitioner : Mr. Sunil Kumar Karn, Advocate For the State : M/s Arvind Ujjwal, S.C. 25 M.N.Roy, A.C. to S.C. 25 For the Respondent no. 9: Mr. Anupa Nand Jha, Advocate 3 15.12.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner, the State and the respondent no. 9. At the time of hearing of this writ application learned counsel for the petitioner submits that he would not press the relief no. 1 (II). Petitioner seeks inquiry with regard to a caste certificate issued by the District Magistrate, Darbhanga in favour of respondent no. 9 and further, if it is found false the same be quashed. However, a counter affidavit has been filed on behalf of the State and a stand has been taken that during the pendency of this writ application a decision had been taken by the District Magistrate, Darbhanga on the basis of the inquiry reports of the Block Development Officer, Raniganj as well as District Officer, Araria cancelling the caste 2 certificate earlier granted to the respondent no. 9. However, thereafter a writ application has been preferred by respondent no. 9 bearing C.W.J.C., No. 390 of 2005 and the same was allowed by order dated 9.1.2009 and order of cancellation of the caste certificate was quashed on the ground that opportunity of hearing was not accorded to the affected person while passing the order. The matter has been remanded to the District Magistrate, Darbhanga, who was directed to issue notice to the concerned furnishing all the details upon which the order has been passed and, thereafter, a final decision was directed to be taken within specified period. It is submitted that the matter is still pending. However, in the aforementioned facts and circumstances, this writ application has become infructuous as the issue has already been decided by another Bench of the this Court and the order passed by the authority cancelling the caste certificate granted in favour of the respondent no. 9 has already been quashed and the matter has been remitted back for fresh determination by the 3 District Magistrate, Darbhanga. Accordingly, this writ application stands disposed of. Spd/- ( Dr. Ravi Ranjan, J.)
