WP(C) 2817/2008 BEFORE HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE RANJAN GOGOI The primary relief sought for in the writ petition, as evident from a re ading of the prayers contained therein, is for a direction to permit the petitio ner to join and discharge his duties in the post of Secretary of Chatalbari Gaon Panchayat to which post the petitioner has been transferred by an order dated 1 1.4.2008. The grievance raised is that inspite of reporting for duty, the petiti oner was not allowed to join in the said post and the respondent No.7 continues to hold the post of Secretary on in-charge basis. It may be put on record at this stage that the petitioner had earlier fi led another writ petition i.e. WP(C) No. 2230/2008 seeking virtually the same re lief wherein by order dated 20.6.2008, this Court had directed that the petition er should report for joining as the Secretary of Chatalbari Gaon Panchayat withi n seven days and that if the petitioner so reports, the concerned authorities wi ll allow him to join in the said post. In view of the aforesaid order dated 20.6 .2008 passed in WP(C) 2230/2008, the present writ petition has been filed virtua lly for implementation of the earlier order of the Court dated 20.6.2008. By order dated 30.6.2008 passed in the present writ petition, the Court had directed the petitioner to report to the Deputy Commissioner, Nalbari on or before 1.7.2008 and, thereafter, the Deputy Commissioner, Nalbari was directed t o implement the Court’s earlier order dated 20.6.2008 passed in WP(C) No. 2230/2 008 by ensuring that the petitioner is allowed to join as the Secretary of Chata lbari Gaon Panchayat. As inspite of the order dated 30.6.2008 the petitioner was not able to j oin in the post in question, by order dated 2.7.2008, the Court had directed the Deputy Commissioner, Nalbari to submit a status report with regard to the imple mentation of the Court’s order dated 30.6.2008 on the reopening day of the summe r vacation i.e. today. Accordingly, the Deputy Commissioner, Nalbari has submitt ed a status report before the Court which would seem to indicate that on receipt the Court’s order dated 30.6.2008 passed in the present writ petition, he had i ssued instructions to all concerned to enable the petitioner to join in the post in question in due implementation of this Court’s order as aforesaid. However, according to the Deputy Commissioner, the President and six members of the Chata lbari Gaon Panchayat had refused to allow the petitioner to join in the post of Secretary inspite of this Court’s order dated 30.6.2008 for the reasons mentione d in the report of the Deputy Commissioner. The Court having already directed the Deputy Commissioner to ensure that the petitioner is able to join in the post in question in accordance with the e arlier order dated 20.6.2008 passed in WP(C) No. 2230/2008, the primary relief s ought for in the writ petition, as noticed above, has already been granted. The report of the Deputy Commissioner placed before the Court indicates that the order of the Court to allow the petitioner to join in the post of Secre tary of Chatalbari Gaon Panchayat has not been implemented due to the stand take n by the President and six members of the Chatalbari Gaon Panchayat, the details of which are available in the report of the Deputy Commissioner. In the aforesa id circumstances, the Court is of the view that it will not be necessary for the Court to keep reiterating its earlier order(s). Instead, the petitioner should be left with the option of availing other legal remedies as may be available to him in view of the facts stated in the status report filed by the Deputy Commis sioner before this Court. The writ petition, therefore, shall stand closed in te rms of the above direction with liberty to the petitioner to avail of such legal remedies as may be open to him in law. A copy of the status report submitted by the Deputy Commissioner be made available to the learned counsel for the petitioner. A copy of the said report be also kept on record.
