The order dated 19.3.2008 contained in Annexure-O which is an order passed by the Divisional Commissioner, Magadh Division, Gaya in Service Appeal No.70/2007 is being challenged in the present writ application. The petitioner’s selection on the post of Angan Bari Sewika in Sawankalan Panchayat has been set aside by the authorities and upheld by the Divisional Commissioner that is the reason why the present writ application has been filed. The Court has gone through the impugned order of the Divisional Commissioner based on the material has come to a categorical finding that she is not a resident of the Panchayat in question and there is sufficiency of material in this regard which has been taken note of in the said order that is the substantial ground why the petitioner cannot be permitted to hold the post because it is not in conformity with the laid down procedure with regard to the residence of an appointee who must belong to the village in question where such appointment is being done. - 2 - Since the Court does not find any irrationality and illegality in the reasoning furnished by the Divisional Commissioner, there is no occasion for the Court to interfere with the said order. The writ application has no merit, it is dismissed. Pawan/- (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
