2 25.04.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the
State.
Petitioner seeks quashing of the order issued
vide memo no. MU-16 dated 27.12.2007 passed by the
Director, Social Welfare Department, Govt. of Bihar,
as contained in Annexure 3, whereby she has been
removed from the post of Aganwari Sewika.
However, it has been fairly submitted by the
learned counsel for the petitioner that she has earlier
moved this Court with same relief in C.W.J.C. No.
15739 of 2008 and sought permission to withdraw
2
the writ application as she proposed to pursue her
representation before the authority. The writ
application was disposed of with a direction to decide
the proposed representation of the petitioner
expeditiously. Thereafter, petitioner claims to have
filed representation before the Director, Social Welfare
Department, which was duly received on 30.11.2009, a
copy of which is appended as Annexure 5 to this writ
application. However, it is urged the same is yet to
be disposed of despite the earlier direction of this
Court to consider the same expeditiously.
It is also submitted that the representations of
other similarly situated persons, who were also
removed by the order as contained in Annexure 3,
have already been considered.
In above view of the matter, let the petitioner
file a fresh representation before the respondent no. 2
within four weeks. If such representation is filed
within four weeks along with a copy of the order, let
the respondent no. 2 consider and dispose of the same
on its own merit and in accordance with law within two
months thereafter and a copy of such decision having
3
been taken be communicated to the petitioner.
This disposes of the writ petition.
