IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.13919 of 2003 SHEO CHANDRA PASWAN Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 5. 24.06.2008 Heard the learned Counsel for the petitioner and the learned Counsel for the State. The petitioner claims the relief for appointment on the post of Chaukidar in pursuance of an application made by him for the purpose. Quite apart from the fact that any appointment on the post of Chaukidar, a government post, would be made only in response to a regular advertisement and upon selection on competitive merit, which is not the case of the petitioner presently, additionally the counter affidavit states that the application of the petitioner has been considered by a Selection Committee and rejected as far back as 29.5.2003 on the grounds of his being ineligible. The counter affidavit also encloses the deliberation demonstrating communication to the petitioner amongst others. The petitioner has not chosen to challenge the rejection of his candidature. In either event there is no merit in this application. It is accordingly dismissed. Snkumar/- (Navin Sinha,J.)
