THE PANCHAYAT SECRETARY GRAM PANCHAYAT RAJ DHOBAGAMA BLOCK , PUSA, DISTT-SAMASTIPUR ----------- 2. 07.04.2010 Heard learned Counsel for the petitioner and the learned Counsel for the State. Learned Counsel submits that by order dated 9.3.1010 the Commissioner, Darbhanga Division, has declined to hear the appeal on the ground that he had no jurisdiction to do so. Reliance is placed on another order of this Court in CWJC No. 12624 of 2009 noticing that the appeal had been heard by the Commissioner against the order of the District Magistrate. Even otherwise in more than one case before this Court the State Government has taken a clear stand that an appeal lies before the Commissioner against the order of the District Magistrate removing an Anganwari Sevika on grounds of dereliction in duty. The order dated 9.3.2010 is set aside and the matter is remanded to the Commissioner, Darbhanga Division, for disposal on merits by a reasoned and speaking order within a maximum period of four months from the date of receipt and/or production of a copy of this order. The writ application stands disposed off. Snkumar/- (Navin Sinha,J.)
