IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.13175 of 2003 GANAURI MANDAL s/o Bishundeo Mandal, residing of village- Govindbigha (Syamtola), PS Lakhisarai District- Lakhisarai, presently posted as Bearer M. L. A. Ward (Surgery Department) In P.M.C.H. Patna, …. Petitioner. Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR 2. The Superintendent of Patna Medical College, Hospital, Patna. 3. The Under the Secretary (Commissioner) Health Department, Patna. 4. The District Accountant Officer, Patna. … Respondents. ----------- 3. 01.10.2010 No one appears for the petitioner. From the following prayer made by the petitioner; “1. That through this writ application the petitioner seeks to envoke the writ jurisdiction Patna before the Hon’ble Court for issuance of an appropriate writ(s) order(s), direction(s) (i) To directs the respondents to give both time bound promotion (i.e. Ist Time Bound Promotion on 16.4.1986 and 2nd time bound promotion completing from the date arising to the petitioner) as in the light of IV pay revision committee report including crosspounding revised scale of Pay w.e.f. 1.1.1986 and 1.1.1996 (ii) To directs the respondents to provides all dues consequential monetary benefits on account of such promotions arising to the petitioner, which were not given to him.” it would become clear that while the petitioner may be entitled for grant of the benefit of first time bound promotion w.e.f. 16.4.1986, his claim for second time bound promotion w.e.f. 16.4.2002 cannot be entertained 2 inasmuch as the time bound promotion policy of the Government was scrapped w.e.f. 1.1.1996. That being so, when from annexure-2 it also becomes clear that the petitioner had already been given the benefit of the first time bound promotion, nothing would survive for adjudication in this case. If however the petitioner has not been given the financial benefit of the first time bound promotion, the respondents would be under obligation to extend the same to the petitioner or at least disclose reasons for not paying such amount within a period of three months from the date of receipt and/or production of a copy of this order. . With the aforementioned observation and direction this writ application is disposed of. kanchan (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
