Petitioner was an applicant for the post of Class IV employee in the judgeship of Gaya pursuant to Employment Advertisement No. 3/2003, Annexure-1. He was selected for appointment under order No. 69/2005, Annexure-2 and was called upon to submit his joining but his joining was not accepted as caste certificate furnished by him in compliance of the appointment letter No. 5892/2005 dated 8.12.2005, Annexure-3 indicated that he was a Blacksmith coming in EBC category but his selection was made as Lohra Scheduled Tribe, as such, he was called upon by the authorities of the 2 Civil Court to furnish another caste certificate from the District Magistrate, Gaya indicating that he belongs to Scheduled Tribes category. Such instruction was issued under letter dated 27.12.2005. Petitioner, however, again submitted caste certificate indicating his caste as Blacksmith and the authorities of the Civil Court, Gaya did not consider the same and petitioner filed the present writ petition. Though the instant writ petition has remained pending for about four years, but the authorities have not chosen to file any counter affidavit in the matter. 3. Having considered the submission of the counsel for the petitioner and the State, I direct the petitioner to represent before the District & Sessions Judge, Gaya, who should either consider his case for appointment or pass a reasoned order indicating the fact as to why petitioner is not being appointed pursuant to appointment order No. 69/2005, Annexure-2, as early as possible, in any case within two months from the date of receipt of the representation 3 before the District & Sessions Judge, Gaya. 4. The writ petition is, accordingly, disposed of Arjun/ ( V. N. Sinha, J.)
