IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.4200 of 2011 BIJAY KUMAR SINGH, SON OF LATE BINDESHWARI PRASAD SINGH, BLOCK EDUCATION EXTENSION OFFICER, MAHISHI BLOCK- MAHISHI, DISTRICT- SAHARSA. ….. PETITIONER. Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR THROUGH THE PRINCIPAL SECRETARY, DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN RESOURCES DEVELOPMENT, GOVERNMENT OF BIHAR, PATNA. 2. THE DIRECTOR, PRIMARY EDUCATION DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN RESOURCES, GOVERNMENT OF BIHAR, PATNA. 3. THE DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT OF EDUCATION, SAHARSA. .. RESPONDENTS. ----------- 2. 20.04.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the State. From the impugned order as contained in Annexure-1, it appears that while initiating the departmental proceeding against the petitioner he has been transferred from the post of Block Education Extension Officer, Mahishi (Saharsa) to the Primary Teachers Training College, Narar (Madhubani) as a Lecturer. This Court does not find error in the said order as apparently respondents did not want the petitioner to remain in the office of Block Education Extension Officer during the period of the departmental 2 proceeding. However, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that salary of the petitioner for the last 20 (twenty) months is pending, which has not been paid without any valid orders. Petitioner is granted liberty to file a representation for this purpose before the Director, Primary Education, who has passed the impugned order. If such a representation is filed the Director, Primary Education shall see to it that admitted salary of the petitioner is released to him in case there is no valid order for withholding the same by any competent authority. The writ application is disposed off with the aforesaid observation and directions. Ibrar/- ( Jayanandan Singh, J.)
