THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, THE BIHAR STATE KHADI & VILLAGE INDUSTRIES BOARD, MAHESH BHAWAN, EAST GTANDHI MAIDAN, PATNA, POLICE STATION- GANDHI MAIDAN, DISTRICT- PATNA :---- RESPONDENTS. ----------- 2. 04.05.2010. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner, State and the Bihar State Khadi & Village Industries Board (hereinafter referred to as the “Board”). 2. Petitioner is aggrieved by the order dated 9.4.2010 (Annexure- 1) passed by the Chief Executive Officer of the Board, whereunder he has been directed to superannuate with effect from 30.4.2010. It is submitted on his behalf that the Board is likely to take a decision to extend the age of superannuation of its employees from 58 years to 60 years. Till date the Board has not taken any decision to extend the retirement age of its employees. In the circumstances, I do not find any merit in this writ application, which is dismissed, however, with observation that in the event any such decision is taken by the Board to extend the age of its employees with retrospective effect i.e. prior to 30.4.2010 then the benefit of such decision be allowed to the petitioner as well.
