THE STATE OF BIHAR THROUGH THE SECRETARY, HUMAN RESOURCES DEPARTMENT, GOVERNMENT OF BIHAR, PATNA. 2. THE DIRECTOR, PRIMARY EDUCATION, GOVERNMENT OF BIHAR, PATNA. 3. DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT OF EDUCATION, ROHTAS AT SASARAM 4. BLOCK DEVELOPMENT OFFICER, ROHTAS, DISTRICT ROHTAS 5. BLOCK EDUCATION OFFICER, ROHTAS, DISTRICT ROHTAS 6. MUKHIA OF UCHAILA GRAM PANCHAYAT, DISTRICT ROHTAS 7. MUKHIA OF AKBARPUR GRAM PANCHAYAT, DISTRICT ROHTAS ---- RESPONDENTS ----------- 2 10.5.2010 There are two petitioners in this writ application. Rita Gupta who claims to be fit for appointment to the post of Anganbari Sevika at Centre No. 64 within village Uchaila, District Rohtas whereas petitioner no. 2 (Indu Kumari) claims to be fit for appointment on the post of Anganbari Sevika at Centre No. 55 within village Akbarpur, P.S. & District Rohtas. The original writ application was filed for making payment of honorarium of the petitioners. Ultimately, it appears that the petitioners were terminated by order dated 10.12.2008, passed by the C.D.P.O., Rohtas, Sasaram and one Khurshida Khatoon was to be appointed on Centre No. 55. There appears to be certain confusion with respect to the manner of appointment. It is contended on behalf of the petitioners that Khurshida Khatoon applied against Centre No. 56 and, therefore, she cannot be appointed in Centre No. 55. Apparently, the Mukhiya is supporting the petitioners and has filed an affidavit in support of these petitioners. 2 I direct that the District Magistrate should call for records and exa,ome all the proceedings with respect to the appointment of both Centre No. 55 and 64 after giving notice to the petitioners as well as the C.D.P.O. and Khurshida Khatoon, after hearing the parties the District Magistrate should pass a reasoned order within a period of three months on receipt/production of a copy of this order. This application is disposed of with the aforesaid observations. In the mean time, no appointment should be made in Centre No. 55 and 64. Sanjay (Sheema Ali Khan, J.)
