IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.1758 of 2006 GORAKH PRASAD, son of late Gandhi Ram, resident of village and P.O. Goura, P S – Kateya, District – Gopalganj. Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR through the Secretary, Finance, Govt. of Bihar, Patna. 2. The Agriculture Production Commissioner, Agriculture Department, Govt. of Bihar, Patna. 3. The Agriculture Director, Govt. of Bihar, Patna. 4. The Joint Agriculture Director, Bihar, Patna. 5. The Collector cum District Magistrate, Gaya. 6. The District Agriculture Officer, Gaya. 7. The Block Development Officer, Gaya Town, District – Gaya. 8. The Block Development Officer, Baiyapur, District – Saran. ----------- 02. 1.10.2010 After filing of the writ application petitioner with many others similarly situated came to be given the benefit of time-bound promotion as well as ACP, which would be evident from the two notifications annexed by the State in the counter affidavit as Annexure R/1 and R/2. Both these notifications relate to 1st August, 2006. Petitioner now submits that the benefit of these two notifications have not accrued to the petitioner. When the petitioner through his counsel obtained information under Right to Information Act, he was informed that lack of sanction or release of fund is the reason for non-payment of the monetary benefit. If that be the position then the writ application is disposed of with a direction upon respondent No.3, Director, Agriculture, Government of Bihar, that he shall examine the case of the petitioner in light of the two notifications and take steps for releasing the fund so that the benefit granted to the petitioner can 2 be drawn by him. The Court expects a decision in this regard within a period of six months from the date of communication / production of a copy of this order. rkp ( Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
