IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.3927 of 2003 Raj Kumar Rai, Son of Vijay Kumar Rai, Resident of Village- Dadpur, Chapri, P.O. + P.S. Amarpur, District Banka. ------- Petitioner Versus 1. The State of Bihar through the Chief Secretary Govt. of Bihar, Patna. 2. The D.G.-cum-I.G. of Police, Bihar, Patna. 3. The A.I.G. of Police (Personnel) Bihar, Patna. 4. The D.I.G. of Police, Munger Ranga, Munger. 5. The then S.P. Jamui Sri B.B.Prasad cum-Chairman, Constable Selection Board, Munger. 6. The S.P. Munger-cum-Member C.S.C. Munger. 7. The S.P. Sheikhpura-cum-Member, C.S.C. Munger. ------ Respondents ----------- 4 24.7.2009 Heard counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State. The grievance of the petitioner in this writ application is one relating to appointment to the post of Constable primarily on the ground that the persons having lesser height than him had already been appointed but then the petitioner having height of 172.5 Cm. was not appointed. The respondents in their counter affidavit have given specific explanation in paragraph no.10 of the counter affidavit by taking a plea that the name of the petitioner was never in the first list and the second list prepared by the S.P. being not in accordance with law, was not approved by the 2 Deputy Inspector General and therefore, the petitioner whose name figured in the second list was not acted upon. This part of the submission in paragraph no.10 of the counter affidavit has not been controverted by the petitioner though he has filed rejoinder affidavit. Once this fact becomes clear that the petitioner had tried to get entry by surreptitious method which was not approved by the controlling authority in terms of the Bihar Police Manual, this Court would hardly find any reason to interfere in the matter of selection on the post of Constable. That being so, this application is dismissed with the aforementioned observations. Rsh (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
