IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Civil Writ Jurisdiction Case No.17136 of 2009 Shashi Kumari D/O Hazarilal Prasad, R/O Vill & P.O- Garahiya, P.S- Madhuban, Distt- East Champaran. -------- Petitioner Versus 1. The State of Bihar through the Principal Secretary, Human Resources Development Dept., Govt. Of Bihar, Patna. 2. The Secretary, Primary Education Dept., Govt. of Bihar, Patna. 3. The Director, Primary Education, Govt. of Bihar, Patna. 4. The District Magistrate, East Champaran, Motihari. 5. The Block Development Officer, Madhuban, Distt.- E. Champaran. 6. The District Superintendent of Education, East Champaran. 7. The Mukhiya, Gram Panchayat Raj, Garahiya, Block Madhuban, Distt., East Champaran. 8. The Panchayt Secretary, Garahiya Panchayat, Madhuban, E. Champaran. ------- Respondents ---------- 4 19.12.2011 No one appears on behalf of the petitioner. In this writ application, the petitioner has assailed an order dated 6.11.2009, whereby and whereunder, she has been held to be disentitled for payment of salary for the period she has been allegedly allowed to work as a Panchayat Shikshak Mitra. From perusal of the impugned order and other material on record, it would become clear that after the post of Panchayat Shiksha Mitra came to be abolished with effect from 1.7.2006, the petitioner was sought to be appointed as a Shiksha Mitra on 2 8.8.2008. Such order passed by the Block Development Officer directing Gram Panchayat to appoint the petitioner on the post of Panchayat Shiksha Mitra could clothe no right on the petitioner to claim payment of salary, inasmuch as, there could have been no appointment on the post of Shiksha Mitra after 1.7.2006. Admittedly, the petitioner was never selected for the post of Panchayat Shikshak and also was not a working Shiksha Mitra as on 30.6.2006. In that view of the matter, the petitioner cannot claim either continuation in service on the post of Shiksha Mitra or payment of salary. This Court, therefore, would find no error in the impugned order passed by the Director, Primary Education. This application is, accordingly, dismissed. Rsh (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
