Head Mistress of Kanya Primary School, Gram Panchayat Raj, Bareja, Manjhi, Chapra. 8. Block Education Extension Officer, Manjhi Block, Chapra. ………………….. Respondents. ----------- 2. 23.07.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the counsel appearing for the state. Counsel for the petitioner is permitted to implead Block Education Extension Officer, Manjhi, Chapra as respondent No. 8. Petitioner’s grievance is that despite his appointment on the post of Panchayat teacher in Gram Panchayat Raj, Bareja and his joining at Kanya Primary School, Gram Panchayat Raj, Bareja. His salary since June, 2007 has been stopped. He is also not being allowed to discharge his duty by the Headmaster of the concerned school though still posted in the school and eager to discharge his 2 duties. I find that the petitioner has already represented his case before the Headmaster of the school and the Mukhiya, Gram Panchayat Raj, Bareja, Chapra for allowing him to discharge his duties and to make payment of his current as well as arrears of salary. This matter is being disposed of with a direction to the Block Education Extension Officer, Manjhi, Chapra to look into the matter why the petitioner is being restrained from discharging his duties and who has passed the order for withholding salary of the petitioner and not allowing him to discharge the duties. The Block Education Extension Officer, Manjhi, Chapra will pass an order after making inquiry in this regard preferably within four weeks from the date of production/communication of this order. Mukhiya of Gram Panchayat Raj, Bareja is also directed to take action and pass order in accordance with law in the matter. Both Block Education Extension Officer, Manjhi and Mukhiya will take all necessary steps for redressal of the petitioner’s grievance. Payment must be made within six weeks. akv/ ( Mridula Mishra, J )
