IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.10193 of 2007 KANCHAN KUMARI Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2 14.07.2009 In this writ application the claim of the petitioner is that after her joining as Siksha Mitra she had been sent on training but when she came back after completion of the training she was not allowed to join and she came to know that during the period of her absence, respondent no. 5 was appointed as Siksha Mitra on her post. Learned counsel for the petitioner points out that the petitioner has already filed a representation before the respondent Collector-cum-District Magistrate, Gaya raising grievance with regard to non-acceptance of her joining. Learned counsel for the petitioner further submits that the writ application may be disposed of with direction to respondent Collector-cum-District Magistrate, Gaya to consider the representation and pass appropriate orders. The writ application is, accordingly, disposed of with a direction to respondent Collector-cum-District Magistrate, Gaya to consider the representation of the petitioner dated 14.04.2007, a copy whereof is annexed as annexure – 7. For convenience of the Collector- cum-District Magistrate, petitioner may file a fresh representation enclosing copies of all the documents in support of her claim within one month from today. In case such a representation is filed, respondent shall consider the same, call for the records and issue notice and hear respondent no. 5 also, if necessary, and pass final 2 orders in accordance with law on the same within three months thereafter. In case he finds favour with the claim of the petitioner he shall also pass consequential orders in respect of the petitioner. However, if he does not find the claim of the petitioner acceptable he shall pass orders assigning specific reasons for the same and communicate the same to the petitioner within the same period. It is made clear that this court has not expressed its opinion with regard to the merits of the claim of the petitioner which has to be decided by the respondent Collector on its own merits and strictly in accordance with law.
