IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA
MJC No.1901 of 2009
MD.NAFIS ALAM .
Versus
THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS .
-----------
03. 27.10.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner.
Show cause has been filed on behalf of
opposite parties.
Learned counsel for the State from
Annexure-A to the show cause dated 6.4.2010 states
that the petitioner has been appointed.
Learned counsel for the petitioner submits
that the order of appointment is silent on the aspect of
his seniority as directed by the Writ Court.
The Writ Court had directed that the
petitioner shall be deemed to have been appointed
from the date that the appointment was wrongly
denied for purposes of seniority. The date is explicit.
His seniority has to be reckoned from the date that
appointment was denied. It would have been better, if
the opposite parties had passed a transparent and
clear order instead of leaving omissions. In any event
the omission is fulfilled by the order of the Writ Court
itself.
The contempt proceedings stand disposed.
