Sumar Kumar Jha son of Late Amar Nath Jha, resident of Mohalla- Rai Saheb Tank, Leheriasarai, P.O.- Leheriasarai, P.S. Bahadupur, District- Darbhanga. --- Respondents. ----------- 4/ 28-03-2011 Despite repeated calls, nobody is present on behalf of the petitioner to press this application. However, I have heard Mr. Vishwa Mohan Kumar Sinha, learned counsel appearing on behalf of respondent no. 2 to 4 and Mr. Durga Nand Jha, learned counsel appearing on behalf of respondent no.6. From the materials available on record it appears that due to pendency of certain private disputes between the petitioner at one side and respondent no.6 at the other side, the present writ petition has been filed, questioning the appointment of respondent no.6 on compassionate ground by the competent authority. Learned counsel for respondent no. 2 to 4 by 2 placing reliance on the averments made in the counter- affidavit, submits that after making thorough enquiry by the competent officers, respondent no.6 was found eligible for his appointment on compassionate ground and, accordingly, he was appointed on Class-III post and he is working there. This writ petition is apparently misconceived. It is, accordingly, dismissed. BTiwary/ ( Birendra Prasad Verma, J.)
