THE STATE OF BIHAR THROUGH THE SECRETARY, URBAN DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT GOVERNMENT OF BIHAR,NEW SECRETARIAT, PATNA 2. DEPUTY SECRETARY TO THE GOVERNMENT , URBAN DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT NEW SECRETARIATE, PATNA 3. DISTRICT MAGISTRATE MUNGER 4. EXECUTIVE OFFICER, NAGAR PARISHAD, MUNGER ----------- 4. 14.01.2010. Heard learned counsel for the petitioners, State and the counsel for the Munger Municipality. 2. Petitioners are the employees of the Munger Municipality. Their services along with 20 others was terminated under letter dated 21st June, 2006, Annexure-12 which was challenged by the other 20 employees in C.W.J.C.No. 8888 of 2006 and under order dated 13.2.2009, Annexure- 8 termination letter dated 21st June, 2006, Annexure-12 was kept in abeyance with direction to reconsider the case of those 20 employees. The authorities have reconsidered the case of the aforesaid 20 employees in compliance of the order of this Court but refused to reinstate the 20 employees under order bearing Memo No. 3236 dated 31.7.2009 which has been assailed by filing C.W.J.C.No. 11436 of 2009 and the said writ application is pending. 3. The petitioners who could not assail the order dated 21st June, 2006 Annexure-12 along with the other 20 employees who assailed the said order in C.W.J.C.No. 8888 of 2006 have now filed the present writ application assailing the order dated 21st June, 2006, Annexure-12. - 2 - 4. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioners, State and the counsel for the Munger Municipality, I am of the view that no useful purpose will be served by passing similar order in the case of the petitioners as was passed by this Court in C.W.J.C.No. 8888 of 2006 and it is deemed expedient to direct that the termination of services of the petitioners will be subject to the result of C.W.J.C.No. 11436 of 2009, Annexure-9. It goes without saying that the Municipality will pay the arrears of salary/wages to the petitioners for the period prior to their termination. 5. With the aforesaid direction, this writ application is disposed of. P.K.P. (V.N.Sinha,J.)
