Changdar For the B.P.S.C. :Mr.Md.Nadim Seraj. ------- 4. 28.11.2008 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner, learned counsel for the State and learned counsel for the Bihar Public Service Commission. The petitioner undertook Secretariat Assistants’ Competitive Examination, 1996 for the post of Assistant in the State Secretariat. The petitioner is aggrieved by the policy decision of the State of Bihar granting weightage to years of service or in other words seniority and his demand is that promotions should be made largely on the basis of merit. A grievance has also been raised that satisfactory service has not been properly defined and on that account everybody has been given weightage for past service. There is no difficulty in holding that unless the disciplinary authority records that the 2 service of a particular employee for any particular period is unsatisfactory, it is to be deemed as satisfactory. So far as merit of the policy of State Government is concerned, this Court would not like to substitute its own wisdom with that of the State Government. No case is made out for interference. The writ petition is dismissed. (Shiva Kirti Singh,J.) spal/
