SAKRA, DISTRICT- MUZAFFARPUR. --APPELLANT Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR 2. THE DIRECTOR, PRIMARY EDUCATION, GOVT. OF BIHAR, PATNA. 3. THE REGIONAL DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF EDUCATION, TIRHUT DIVISION, MUZAFFARPUR. 4. THE DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT OF EDUCATION, MUZAFFARPUR, DISTRICT-MUZAFFARPUR. 5. THE BLOCK EXTENSION EDUCATION OFFICER, SAKRA, DISTRICT-MUZAFFARPUR. --RESPONDENTS 7 21.06.2011 This Letters Patent Appeal has been filed against the order dated 20.9.2004 passed in CWJC no. 11001 of 2003 being aggrieved with the findings of the learned single Judge that the appointment of the appellant herein is a forged one. The main contention by the appellant with regard to the findings of the learned single Judge is that the appointment is illegal one. It is contended by the official respondents that one Arun Kumar Jha was appointed as Assistant Teacher but, however, the appellant was chosen with the forged appointment letter. It is also contended that without 2 coming to the conclusion whether the appointment letter is a forged one the findings of the Director that the appointment of the appellant is illegal, cannot be sustained. But, however, the learned single Judge did not agree with such contention and held that the appellant claims to be resident of village Bishanpur Sri Ram, P.O. Tikar Ashanand, P.S. Sakra in the district of Muzaffarpur and posted at Primary School, Chknathan in Paroo Block in the District of Muzaffarpur but appointment letter shows appointment of Arun Kumar Jha of village Sabhuta, P.O. Balua Block, Aurai, in the district of Muzaffarpur, who is still working. The learned senior counsel argued that the Director was under obligation to go into the question whether the appointent letter is forged one. There cannot be finding with regard to the illegality of appointment of the appellant. We see some force in the argument of the learned senior counsel. However, the Director, Primary Education, Government of Bihar, Patna, is directed to go into the question whether the appointment of the appellant is forged one or not after affrording opportunity to the 3 appellant herein. It is also made clear that if the appointment is found to be forged one, the appellant cannot have any right to continue. It is made clear that the enquiry should be done within a period of six months. With the above observation, the appeal is disposed of. AAhmad/ (T. Meena Kumari, J.) ( Akhilesh Chandra, J.)
