The State Of Bihar, through its Principal Secretary, Human Resources Development Department (Higher Education), Government of Bihar, Patna. 2. The Chancellor, Universities of Bihar, Governor House, Patna. 3. Magadh University, through its Registrar, Magadh University, Bodh Gaya. 4. The Vice-Chancellor, Magadh University, Bodh Gaya. 5. The Governing Body of K.S.T. College through its Secretary, Salempur, Sohsarai, Nalanda. 6. The Principal, K.S.T. College, Salempur, Sohsarai, Nalanda…………………………………..Respondents ----------- 2 28.04.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner as well as learned counsel for the respondents. From Annexure-1 it appears that while disposing of the writ application, this Court had requested the Chancellor to consider the representation of the petitioner dated 25.03.2009 as contained in Annexure-4 in accordance with law as early as possible by passing a reasoned order. From a letter of the Chancellor’s Secretariat dated 27.09.2010 annexed as Annexure-6 it appears that Chancellor’s 2 Secretariat was still waiting for report from the University which was sought for earlier by the Chancellor. Annexure-7 is the enquiry report of a Committee which was constituted by the University in compliance to the orders of the Chancellor. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that either report has not been received in the Secretariat of the Chancellor till now or if received, Chancellor has not taken any final decision in the matter by passing a reasoned order, as requested by this Court earlier. In the circumstances, this Court can only request the Chancellor to look into the matter and if report has been received, to take a decision after giving opportunity to the parties to be heard or if the report has not been received, to take steps for early submission of the report by the University for such consideration. It is expected that any final decision will be taken by the Chancellor 3 and a reasoned order shall be passed preferably within four months from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. This writ application is disposed of with the aforesaid observations. Let a copy of this order be handed over to Mr. Rajendra Kumar Giri, learned counsel appearing for the Chancellor. BT (J. N.
