IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.14147 of 2007 Rukmini Kumari, daughter of late Ram Charan Pandit, resident of Village and P.O. Faridpur, P.S. Janipur, Dist. Patna, at present working as Assistant Teacher, Middle School, Biranchak, Faridpur, P.S. Janipur, Dist. Patna. -------- Petitioner Versus 1. The State of Bihar through the Secretary-cum-Commissioner, Human Resources Development Department, Govt. of Bihar, Patna. 2. The Director, Primary Education, Govt. of Bihar, Patna. 3. Divisional Commissioner, Patna Division, Patna. 4. District Education Establishment Committee, Patna. 5. Deputy Development Commissioner, Patna. 6. District Superintendent of Education, Patna Collectorate Compound, Patna. 7. Chandra Bhushan Pathak, Head Master-cum-Drawing and Disbursing Officer, Middle School, Biranchak, Faridpur, P.s. Janipur, Dist. Patna. --------- Respondents ----------- 2 22.11.2011 Having heard learned counsel for the parties and taking into account that the payment of salary of the petitioner was resumed in view of some observations made in CWJC No. 13544 of 2002, the petitioner cannot claim any payment of interest caused for delayed payment of salary, inasmuch as, such prayer ought to have been made by the petitioner in his pending writ application CWJC No. 13544 of 2002. That being so, the claim for payment of interest on the arrears of salary paid to the petitioner to the tune of Rs. 5,01,335/- must be and is hereby rejected. Counsel for the petitioner has next 2 submitted that the petitioner has been granted the senior pay-scale of the post of Matric Trained Teacher during pendency of this writ application on 15.7.2009 with effect from 16.3.1991. That would mean that the prayer of the petitioner to this effect has also become infructuous. Counsel for the petitioner would next submit that the petitioner was entitled for grant of Super Selection Grade Scale for 24 years of service with effect from 17.3.2003. The petitioner may represent her case for grant of the aforesaid relief of Super Selection Grade before the competent authority, namely, District Programme Officer, Patna who, thereafter, will place the case of the petitioner before the District Education Establishment Committee and obtain the order of the Committee. Any decision that may be taken by the Committee will also be communicated to the petitioner and would be acted upon. This Court, however, would not find any justification in allowing the prayer of the petitioner for a direction for payment of arrear of City Compensatory allowance with 3 effect from 1.9.1984 to October, 2006 and arrear of conveyance allowance from April, 2000 to October, 2006 in view of the fact that this writ application for the aforementioned delayed cause of action was filed only on 6.11.2007. If the petitioner, therefore, was legally entitled to such amount, the District Programme Officer will again get the same examined and take a decision through the District Education Establishment Committee. With the aforementioned observations and direction, this application is disposed of. Rsh (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
