Respondents --------------------------- 2. 12/09/2011 From the impugned order (Annexure-6) of the Block Development Officer-cum-Executive Officer, Sarve Siksha Abhiyan, Chatapur dated 11.5.2008, it appears that by a cryptic order petitioners have been dismissed from service. There is nothing on the record to show that the petitioners were given any show cause notice or any opportunity to be heard in the matter before this order was passed. The order of the Block Development Officer-cum-Executive Officer is, therefore, quashed on account of violation of Principles of Natural Justice. The Block 2 Development Officer-cum-Executive Officer is directed to transmit all the records in respect of appointment of teachers in the Block including the petitioners to the statutory Appellate Authority within four weeks from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. If the records are transmitted to the Appellate Authority, it shall issue notice to the concerned parties giving them opportunity to be heard in the matter, shall call for the original records from the Prakhand Office and shall decide the matter on merits within three months from the date of receipt of records from the Block Development Officer-cum-Executive Officer or from any other competent authority of the Bihar Education Project, Chatapur.
