A<\/p>\n<p>                  memo of four charges was issued on 20.4.2006. The petitioner filed<\/p>\n<p>                  CWJC No. 4140 of 2006. The Court by a considered order at paragraph<\/p>\n<p>                  8 of the same quashed the resolution of the State Government initiating<\/p>\n<p>                  the departmental proceeding as also the memo of charges.<\/p>\n<p>                          The charges related to the year 2002-2003.The petitioner is<\/p>\n<p>                  stated to have superannuated on 31.1.2008. On 22.5.2008 the<\/p>\n<p>                  respondents are alleged to have initiated proceeding against him under<\/p>\n<p>                  Rule 43 (b) of the Pension Rules in context of the charges quashed by<\/p>\n<p>                  the Court.\n<\/p>\n<p>                          The writ petition was filed on 3.3.2009 after serving two copies<\/p>\n<p>                  of the same in the office of the Advocate General. The second copy was<\/p>\n<p>                  to facilitate expeditious filing of a counter affidavit to assist the Court in<\/p>\n<p>                  timely dispensation of justice. The matter was listed on 4.3.2009 when<\/p>\n<p>                  four weeks&#8217; time was granted to file counter affidavit. Nearly two and<\/p>\n<p>                  half years since the date of filing of the writ petition has not been<\/p>\n<p>                  considered sufficient by the respondents to file a counter affidavit. The<\/p>\n<p>                  Court nonetheless on 11th July passed over the matter to enable the<\/p>\n<p>                  Counsel for the State to seek instructions why no counter affidavit was<\/p>\n<p>                  being filed. He submits that he has received a written instruction from<\/p>\n<p>                  the Joint Secretary, Water Resources Department dated 12.7.2011<\/p>\n<p>                  instructing him to seek further time of at least two weeks for filing of the<\/p>\n<p>                  counter affidavit.\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                                                             2<\/span><\/p>\n<p>         Those who hold power vested by the Government do so in trust<\/p>\n<p>and as a trustee of the State Government which believes that they shall<\/p>\n<p>act in its best interest to protect its actions and claims. The Government<\/p>\n<p>has every right to contest a litigation before a Court and justify its action.<\/p>\n<p>But that cannot be turned into an excuse by the trustees to linger the<\/p>\n<p>proceeding and delay it to the maximum extent possible so that it<\/p>\n<p>virtually results in denial to access of justice to citizens approaching the<\/p>\n<p>Court.    There can be no two opinions that for a person who is<\/p>\n<p>superannuated a proceeding under Rule 43 (b) of the Pension Rules is<\/p>\n<p>an extremely serious matter. The respondents sanguine in the safety of<\/p>\n<p>their office seem to be unconcerned.\n<\/p>\n<p>         The Court is constrained to observe that the trustees of the<\/p>\n<p>State Government appear to be labouring under a misconception that<\/p>\n<p>that no matter how much time may have passed since the writ petition<\/p>\n<p>may have been filed, to ask for an adjournment for filing a counter<\/p>\n<p>affidavit at the first hearing irrespective of the date of filing the writ<\/p>\n<p>petition, was a vested right. That the Government was a privileged<\/p>\n<p>litigant, where the citizen must stand and wait for justice.<\/p>\n<p>         In pursuance of the National Litigation Policy the State<\/p>\n<p>Government has framed the Bihar State Litigation Policy 2011<\/p>\n<p>published in the Bihar Gazette on 31.3.2011. The objective of the policy<\/p>\n<p>is to transform the State Government into an efficient litigant. Meaning<\/p>\n<p>thereby conducting litigation in a cohesive, co-ordinated and time bound<\/p>\n<p>manner. Clause IV (d) of the Policy dealing with adjournment states that<\/p>\n<p>unnecessary adjournment on behalf of the State should be avoided,<\/p>\n<p>they will be frowned upon and infraction dealt with seriously. In fresh<\/p>\n<p>litigation where the Government was a defendant or respondent in the<\/p>\n<p>first instant a reasonable adjournment may be applied for, for obtaining<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                                                                  3<\/span><\/p>\n<p>        instruction. It must be furnished with such instructions and made<\/p>\n<p>        available and communicated before the next date of hearing. The Nodal<\/p>\n<p>        Officer and if necessary the Head of the Department is answerable. If<\/p>\n<p>        there are repeated adjournments serious note will be taken of the<\/p>\n<p>        negligence and default of the respondents concerned and it will be dealt<\/p>\n<p>        with appropriately by referring such cases to the Empowered<\/p>\n<p>        Committee. Clause V states that filing of counter affidavit should not be<\/p>\n<p>        delayed. It is now for the respondents to do some soul searching with<\/p>\n<p>        regard to the materials noticed in the present order.<\/p>\n<p>               Adjournment granted subject to cost of Rs.10,000\/- to be paid by<\/p>\n<p>        the State Government within a period of ten days before the High Court<\/p>\n<p>        Legal Services Committee Patna and receipt filed within that period.<\/p>\n<p>               The Counter affidavit must explain the reasons for the delay<\/p>\n<p>        fixing responsibility in accordance with the State Litigation Policy and<\/p>\n<p>        making a clear statement from whose salary the amount has been<\/p>\n<p>        deducted along with proof in support thereof.\n<\/p>\n<p>               Today the delay in dispensation of justice and the clogging to<\/p>\n<p>        the dockets of the Court is a matter of concern for one and all.<\/p>\n<p>        Repeated seminars and workshops are being held to find out a solution<\/p>\n<p>        of this problem. Perhaps as long as the attitude of the present nature as<\/p>\n<p>        discussed in this order persists the solution may be difficult to be found.<\/p>\n<p>        The petitioner desires quick justice. The Court is willing to hear the<\/p>\n<p>        matter.
