IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.11172 of 2009 RENU KUMARI Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2 28.10.2009 Heard Counsel for the petitioner and the Counsel appearing for the State. Petitioner’s prayer is for quashing the order contained in letter no. 07 dated 16.7.2009 issued by the Mukhiya, Gram Panchayat Raj Sihi in the district of Patna, whereby her appointment has been declared illegal and accordingly the petitioner has been removed from the post of Panchayat Shikshak, Primary School, Nawada. The impugned order has been challenged by the petitioner on the ground that it is completely illegal and without jurisdiction, as such, fit to be quashed. Considering the fact that the petitioner has not exhausted the statutory remedy available to him under the Bihar Primary Panchayat Teachers (Appointment and service Conditions) Rules, 2008 by way of filing an appeal before the District Teachers Employment Appellate Tribunal, as such this application is being disposed of giving liberty to the petitioner for filing an appeal before the Appellate Forum. The Appellate Forum shall consider the petitioner’s case on merit and decide the same in accordance with law within the statutory period. (Mridula Mishra,J.) A.kumar
