WP(C) 3025/2011 BEFORE THE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE B.K. SHARMA The matter relates to selection and appointment of Anganwadi Wor ker for the center called No. 297 Soilmari Gaon Paschim Suba Anganwadi center un der Rupsi ICDS Project, Kalgachia, Barpeta. I have heard Mr. A. Roshid, learned counsel for the petitioner a s well as Mr. B.K. Sarma, learned Standing Counsel, Social Welfare Department. According to the respondents, the private respondent has been ap pointed since in the selection she secured total 67.4 marks as against 54 marks secured by the petitioner. Referring to Annexure-2 advertisement dated 7.9.2009, it is the stand of the petitioner that the name of the Anganwadi center was wrongly mentio ned. The respondents in their counter affidavit have clarified this position. In this connection, paragraph 7 of the counter affidavit is quoted below: 7.That with regard to the statement made in paragraph 6 of the writ petition, the deponent begs to state that at the time of publication of the elect list there was typographical mistake where appointment of the respondent No. 6 has been shown against the center No. 297 Soilmari Dakhin instead of No. 2 97 Soilmari Paschim and the said typographical mistake was subsequently rectifie d by the office of the respondent no. 4. Because of the said typographical mista ke, the appointment of the respondent no.6 cannot be considered as illegal inasm uch as the respondent no. 6 had submitted application wherein it is blatant that the respondent no. 6 applied for the AWC in question i.e. No. 297 Soilmari Pasc him Suba and duly appeared in the interview as resident of 297 Soilmari Paschim Anganwadi Centre. The deponent craves leave of the Hon’ble to produce the releva nt application form at the time of the hearing of the case. The petitioner having secured lesser mark than the private respo ndent, she cannot claim that she should have been appointed. In view of the above, no relief can be granted to the petitioner . Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed.
