IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.4904 of 2004 CHANDRA BHUSHAN SINGH & ANR Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 9 20-8-2008 Heard learned counsel for the petitioners, learned counsel for the respondent- Bank and also learned counsel for the State of Bihar. From the orders passed earlier it appears that this writ petition was filed as a Public Interest Litigation but ultimately by order dated 3-7-2006 a Division Bench held that since the petitioner had himself appeared in the limited test for promotion from Scale I to Scale II in the managerial cadre and he was not successful and has challenged the method of conducting the test, the writ petition cannot be treated to be Public Interest Litigation. The grievance of the petitioner is that after conducting the limited test the answer sheets were not sent to the examiner in proper manner and on account of such irregularity the result of the test should be set aside. Further grievance of the petitioners is that two candidates who had violated the guidelines relating to modality for taking the test and not looking at the answer sheets of the others, were initially - 2 - placed under doubtful candidates but later the Bank has declared their result and they have been declared successful. Considering that there is no grievance that petitioner has been subjected to any mala fide action and admittedly he has not been successful in the limited test for promotion, it is found that no right of the petitioner has been violated by denying his promotion on the basis of limited test. Hence, writ petition is dismissed. Naresh (Shiva Kirti Singh,J)
