No. 3997 of 1994. The appellants filed the above writ petition for a direction to Patna High Court LPA No.957 of 2011 (3) dt.20-07-2011 2 the State Government to pay salary to the appellants as the teachers of Harijan Primary School, Bhagaut, P.S. Hasanpur, P.O. Hasanpur, District- Samastipur. After perusal of the pleadings and the records, the learned single judge has held that the aforesaid Hasanpur School was established by the District School Board in 1983 and a trained teacher was appointed in the said school. The appellants were neither the trained teachers nor were they ever appointed in the said school either by the District School Board or by the School Management. Prior to 1983 the school was not in existence. In view of the said finding, the appellants’ claim for salary as teachers in the said Harijan School has been rejected. Therefore, the present Appeal. No case for interference is made out. The Appeal is dismissed in limine. B Tiwary/- (R.M. Doshit, CJ) (Birendra Prasad Verma, J)
