This is the first<\/p>\n<p>                     point of reference. Having received the permission to establish the<\/p>\n<p>                     school, Teachers, like the petitioner, were recruited.         Once the<\/p>\n<p>                     teaching faculty, the students, building and other formalities were<\/p>\n<p>                     completed, State Government inspected and granted recognition to the<\/p>\n<p>                     school. This is the second point of reference. Then, as most of the<\/p>\n<p>                     schools were unable to pay their fiscal liability, they had to be aided<\/p>\n<p>                     by the Government. In course of time, the aid of the Government<\/p>\n<p>                     became substantial and ultimately, in 1980, Government took decision<\/p>\n<p>                     to take over a large number of Private Schools. This is the third point<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                       -2-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>of reference.\n<\/p>\n<p>                The grievance of the petitioner is that for the purposes<\/p>\n<p>of retirement benefit, the period she has served in the school from the<\/p>\n<p>time of establishment of school, should be reckoned.       But the State<\/p>\n<p>Government is of the contrary view. It takes the view that the services<\/p>\n<p>would be counted only from the date of grant of recognition,<\/p>\n<p>fortunately not from the date of take over.\n<\/p>\n<p>                Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that this<\/p>\n<p>would create a very anomalous and arbitrary situation, inasmuch as to<\/p>\n<p>establish a school for its recognition, it is required to employ teachers<\/p>\n<p>but the service of those teachers for the purposes of retirement benefit<\/p>\n<p>would not be recognized from the time of their appointment but from<\/p>\n<p>the time of recognition of the school which is much later. Learned<\/p>\n<p>counsel for the petitioner further points out that prior to the take over<\/p>\n<p>in 1980, take over of schools were done at different points of time.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, each time, the Government clarified that the services would be<\/p>\n<p>counted from the date of establishment of the school, which is the first<\/p>\n<p>point of reference.\n<\/p>\n<p>                Learned counsel for the State has drawn attention of<\/p>\n<p>this Court to the judgment of this Court in the case of Arun Jha Vs.<\/p>\n<p>The State of Bihar &amp; others, being C.W.J.C. No.10726 of 2004,<\/p>\n<p>decided on 11.05.2006. In that judgment, it is held that in exercise of<\/p>\n<p>powers conferred under the Bihar Non-Government Secondary School<\/p>\n<p>(Taking Over of Management and Control) Act, 1982 the State<\/p>\n<p>Government had framed the Bihar Taken Over Secondary Education<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                      -3-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>School Service Condition Rules, 1983 wherein Rule-20 provided for<\/p>\n<p>repeal. Their Lordships was of the view that Rule-20 provided that all<\/p>\n<p>Rules framed prior would be deemed to be repealed and, therefore,<\/p>\n<p>their Lordships hold that all previous rules and circulars issued stood<\/p>\n<p>repealed by these 1983 Rules and then relied on 1982 circular which<\/p>\n<p>again did not say so that the service would be counted only from the<\/p>\n<p>date of recognition because it also said that from the date of<\/p>\n<p>permission to establish the schools, the services could be counted.<\/p>\n<p>This Court then held that it is only from the date of recognition that the<\/p>\n<p>service would be counted.\n<\/p>\n<p>               Learned counsel for the petitioner has seriously assailed<\/p>\n<p>the correctness of this view but being view of a Single Judge, I am not<\/p>\n<p>bound by it. It is not open for me to take a different view of the matter<\/p>\n<p>but, in my view, the situation is same because of two Division Bench<\/p>\n<p>judgments of this Court both before this judgment, which was not<\/p>\n<p>brought to the notice of the Single Judge while deciding the case of<\/p>\n<p>Arun Kumar Jha. The first judgment is dated 09.03.1994 the Division<\/p>\n<p>Bench presided by Justice S.B. Sinha (as he then was) in C.W.J.C.<\/p>\n<p>No.430 of 1993 (Smt Bharati Ojha Vs. The State of Bihar &amp; another).<\/p>\n<p>In that case, the question squarely was what would be the date of<\/p>\n<p>appointment in a taken over school. Upon reading of circulars, their<\/p>\n<p>Lordships held that it would be the date of establishment of the school.<\/p>\n<p>Then, we come to the Division Bench judgment in the case of Deorlaj<\/p>\n<p>Sharma Vs. The State of Bihar &amp; others since reported in 2004(3)<\/p>\n<p>PLJR 683, wherein the teacher joined service in 1963, the school was<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                 -4-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>           taken over in 1974-75, their Lordships held that the service for the<\/p>\n<p>           purposes of retirement benefit would be counted from 1963 till<\/p>\n<p>           retirement in 1997, that is, from the date prior to take over and prior to<\/p>\n<p>           recognition.   Similar view has recently been taken in the case of<\/p>\n<p>           Shyam Kishore Singh Vs. The State of Bihar &amp; Ors. since reported<\/p>\n<p>           in 2007(2) PLJR 239.\n<\/p>\n<p>                          Considering the aforesaid, I am constrained to hold, in<\/p>\n<p>           view of Division Bench judgments of this Court, which do not appear<\/p>\n<p>           to have been brought to the notice of the Court in the case above noted<\/p>\n<p>           and being bound by Division Bench judgment, that the service of the<\/p>\n<p>           petitioner has to be counted from the date of establishment of the<\/p>\n<p>           school for the purposes of retirement benefit and authorities would act<\/p>\n<p>           accordingly within a period of three months from the date of<\/p>\n<p>           production of a copy of this order before him. The responsibility of<\/p>\n<p>           implementing the order would be on Director, Secondary Education,<\/p>\n<p>           Government of Bihar.\n<\/p>\n<p>                          The writ petition stands disposed of.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<pre>Trivedi\/                         (Navaniti Prasad Singh, J.)\n <\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Patna High Court &#8211; Orders Smt.Asha Sharma vs The State Of Bihar &amp;Amp; Ors on 28 March, 2011 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.1046 of 2006 Smt.
