State.

Petitioner is working as Class III employ in the

District Central Library, Gandhi Park, Jamui, which

according to the counsel for the State, is not State within

the meaning of Article 12 of the Constitution of India.

In the circumstances, relief prayed for in the

writ petition cannot be allowed, which is disposed of

granting liberty to the petitioner to take legal recourse

before the appropriate forum.
