IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.4355 of 2009 Ranju Kumari Versus The State Of Bihar & Ors ----------- 2/ 21/07/2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State. The petitioner is aggrieved by the selection of respondent No.8 on the post of Secretary, Gram Kutchery in the Gangapur Gram Panchayat, Block- Lakhnaur, District- Madhubani. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the counseling was held last on 14.9.2007. The petitioner complained against her own exclusion from the same on 22.10.2007. There has been no consideration of the same. Rule-12 of the Bihar Gram Kutchery Secretary (Appointment and Service Conditions and Duties) Rules, 2007 framed under Section-94(i) of the Bihar Panchayat Ran Act, 2006 stipulates a statutory procedure for lodging of a complaint before the Sub-divisional Magistrate within a period of 30 days from the date of the appointment sought to be questioned. The writ petition does not disclose on what date the respondent No.8 was appointed and that any statutory complaint was filed by the petitioner within 2 the time prescribed. That she may have had a grievance with regard to her exclusion from counseling and made a complaint beyond 30 days shall not lead to a presumption that she had a further grievance against the denial of her appointment in absence of any challenge in time to such fresh appointment. The writ application is dismissed. KC ( Navin Sinha, J.)
