CWJC No.4600 of 2003
KUMARI DIVYA
Versus
THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS.
With
CWJC No. 4902 of 2003
GYATRI DEVI
Versus
THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS.
-----------
4 03.09.2010 Despite earlier order dated 5.8.2010, which was in
continuation to the previous order dated 14.5.2003, no counter
affidavit has been filed as yet. This writ application was filed on
9.5.2003 and a period of more than seven years has not been
sufficient for the respondents for filing of the counter affidavit.
In that view of the matter, this Court would allow the
prayer for filing of the counter affidavit within further one week as
prayed for but subject to the payment of cost of Rs. 5,000/- by the
Director, Secondary Education who, along with the counter
affidavit, would annex the receipt showing payment of such cost in
favour of the Patna High Court Legal Services Authority.
List this case after two weeks in order to enable the
counsel for the petitioner to file his rejoinder, if any, to such
counter affidavit.
