IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.6747 of 2010 SHEO SHANKAR KUMAR S/O GAJADHAR PRASAD R/O VILL.- RAMSANG, P.S.- HARNAUT, DISTT.- NALANDA Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR 2. PRINCIPAL SECRETARY HUMAN RESOURCES DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT, GOVT. OF BIHAR, PATNA 3. DIRECTOR, PRIMARY EDUCATION, BIHAR, PATNA 4. DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT OF EDUCATION NALANDA AT BIHAR SHARIF 5. BLOCK DEVELOPMENT OFFICER HARNAUT, DISTT.- NALANDA 6. BLOCK EDUCATION EXTENSION OFFICER HARNAUT, DISTT.- NALANDA 7. HEADMASTER, PRIMARY SCHOOL RAMSANG, DISTT.- NALANDA 8. APPELLATE AUTHORITY DISTRICT TEACHERS EMPLOYMENT, NALANDA AT BIHAR SHARIF THROUGH PRESIDING OFFICER 9. RITA KUMARI W/O TUNTUN SAO R/O VILL.- MAI, P.S. HARNAUT, DISTT.- NALANDA ----------- 02. 18.1.2011 The reason why the appellate authority, Nalanda at Biharsharif has ordered for removal of the petitioner from the post of Panchayat Teacher is that he did not obtain Intermediate Degree within thirty three months from the date of his appointment. It is evident from reading of the said order that it is not only a question of obtaining degree within 33 months because the so-called degree obtained by the petitioner is from an institution of Hindi Sahitya Sammelan at Prayag, which is no degree in the eye of law so far as State of Bihar is concerned. There is no dispute on this proposition because in the case of State of Bihar v. Mamta Kumari, 2010 (4) PLJR 318, it has been decided that the degree obtained from Hindi Sahitya Sammelan, Prayag is no degree in the eye of law. In this view of the matter the tribunal has committed no 2 wrong in ordering for removal of the petitioner as he has not passed his intermediate examination or the so-called passing has no meaning in the eye of law so far as State of Bihar is concerned. The writ application is dismissed. rkp ( Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
