WP(C) 4047/2010 BEFORE HON’BLE MR JUSTICE I A ANSARI Heard Mr. P.P. Das, learned counsel for the petitioner, and Ms. B. L. Sinha, lea rned Government Advocate, appearing on behalf of respondent Nos. 1 to 3. The petitioner, Md. Rajak Ali, participated in a selection process, whic h was conducted to fill up a lone post of Lower Division Assistant in the establ ishment of the Member, Foreigners Tribunal, Diphu. In the select list, which wa s published on 26.08.2009, apart from the name of one Sri Anjan Neog, the petiti oner’s name also appeared. As the said Anjan Neog secured highest position in t he select list, he was appointed as LD Assistant, on 17.09.2009. However, after the appointment of the said Anjan Neog, one more post of LD Assistant has falle n vacant due to the death of its incumbent, Rabilal Sharma, and the petitioner h as filed this writ petition seeking directions to be issued to the respondents t o appoint the petitioner against the post, which has, now, fallen vacant on the ground that the select list, dated 26.08.2009, has not yet expired. While considering the petitioner’s submission, it needs to be carefully noted that the selection process, which the petitioner had taken part in, was he ld for filling up of only one post of LD Assistant, and, hence, merely because o f the fact that the select list, dated 26.08.2009, has not yet expired, no direc tion can be issued by this Court to the respondents to consider the petitioner’s case for appointment to the post, which has fallen vacant subsequent to the sel ection process, when the selection process was for the lone post. In view of the above, this Court is firmly of the view that the petition er is not entitled to the relief, which he has sought for. This writ petition i s, therefore, not admitted and the same shall accordingly stand dismissed. No order as to costs.
