IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.7744 of 2001 SHRIKANT PANDEY Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 4/ 16/9/2008. Learned counsel for the petitioner fairly submits that insofar as the reliefs for grant of a replacement scale with effect from 1.4.1997 and stagnated increment with effect from 18.11.1999 be concerned, the same has been granted and the statements to that effect in the counter affidavit are correct. For the period from March, 2000 to 2001 for which salary has been denied, while the counter affidavit alleges unauthorized absence, in the departmental proceedings, the enquiry report dated 29.11.2002 finds him partially guilty on surmises and conjectures only without any positive finding of guilt and that therefore he has filed representation in that regard and seeks disposal of the same. If the petitioner has filed a representation, as was submitted on his behalf, this Court requires the concerned respondent to consider and dispose of the same appropriately, in accordance with law, by a reasoned order and speaking order within a maximum period of 12 - 2 - weeks from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. The writ application stands disposed. KC ( Navin Sinha,J )
