Respondents. ----------- 2. 19.08.2009 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the state. Petitioner is aggrieved on account of the issuance of the officer order contained in Memo No. 506 dated 17.04.2009 passed by Regional Deputy Director of Education, Koshi Division, Saharsa whereby one, Narendra Kumar Mishra, Assistant Teacher (respondent No. 8) has been made in- charge, Headmaster of school after retirement of permanent Headmaster of the school. Petitioner’s case is that he is the senior most teacher in school. In the seniority list of the teachers also, he is placed much above the respondent No. 8 but ignoring all these facts, respondent No. 8 has been made in-charge, Headmaster. Considering the fact that Annexure-V indicates that some allegations have been made by the teachers, students - 2 - and other local people against the petitioner, this matter is being disposed of directing the petitioner to represent his case before the Director, Secondary Education, Govt of Bihar, Patna for redressal of his grievance. In case such representation is filed by the petitioner within two weeks from today, the respondent No. 3 will consider and decide it within four weeks from the date of filing of such representation. akv (Mridula Mishra, J.)
