IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Civil Writ Jurisdiction Case No.18338 of 2011 Arun Kumar S/O Shri Bharat Prasad Singh Resident Of Village-Rawaich, Police Station-Bakhtiarpur, Distt. Patna Posted As Junior Engineer In The Office Of The Pool Nirman Nigam, Mangles Road, P.S.-Secretariat Patna, Distt.-Patna (Bihar). ……………… Petitioner Versus 1.

Secretary-Cum-Special Secretary, Road Construction Department, Bihar Office Situated In Nirman Bhawan, Patna. 3. Deputy Secretary, Road Construction Department, Office Situated In Nirman Bhawan, Patna. 4. Managing Director, Pool Nirman Nigam Office Situated In Mangles Road, Patna. ………………. Respondents ---------------------------------- 02. 25.11.2011 Annexure- 6 is the Order, which has been passed on the basis of earlier direction of the Court to decide the claim of the petitioner with regard to grant of benefit of A.C.P. to him. Matter has been considered by the Engineer-in-Chief, Road Construction Department and a categorical finding has been recorded that there is a criminal case pending in the Vigilance Court against the petitioner, which has not reached finality. Pendency of a criminal case surely comes in the way of grant of benefit of A.C.P., because it can not be the claim of the petitioner that case or no case he still ought to be given the benefit ignoring the said fact or rule. The reasons given for non-grant or non- consideration at this stage are cogent reasons. No interference is required with Annexure- 6, which is the speaking order. The Writ is dismissed.
