THE ENGINEER IN CHIEF, RURAL WORK DIVISION BIHAR, PATNA 5. THE SUPERINTENDING ENGINEER,RURAL WORKS DIVISION WORK CIRCLE-2, CHHAPRA 6. THE EXECUTIVE ENGINEER, RURAL WORKS DEPARTMENT WORKS DIVISION-2, CHHAPRA …………….. Respondents ----------- 02. 19.07.2010 Heard counsel for the petitioner and the counsel appearing for the State. Prayer of petitioner is for quashing of Order contained in Memo No. 7036, dated 24.06.2010, whereby a direction has been issued to the petitioner for submitting his joining in the parent Department (Water Resources Department, Government of Bihar). 2 The impugned order has been challenged by the petitioner on the ground that within a short span of time, he is being asked to give joining in the parent Department. Secondly, some important projects are still incomplete, as such, he may be allowed to remain at the present place for some time. On perusal of the Orders contained in Annexures 2 and 3, it is apparent that the petitioner and several other Junior Engineers were asked to give joining in the parent Department, i.e., Water Resources Department earlier by Order contained in letter no. 1895, dated 10.06.2009 and 1896, dated 10.06.2009, which was stayed for some time. Now, by the impugned order, the stay, which was earlier allowed, has been withdrawn and the petitioner as well as several Junior Engineers have been asked to give joining in the parent Department. I do not find any reason to interfere with the impugned order. This application is dismissed. S.K.M. (Mridula Mishra, J.)
