Anjila Singh v. The State Of Bihar and Ors.
Case brief
What is this about?
The Patna High Court dismissed a writ petition filed by Anjila Singh challenging her lack of promotion in the B.A. trained pay scale. The Court held that the statutory alternative remedy of filing an appeal before the Regional Deputy Director of Education was available and had not been exhausted, rendering the writ application misconceived and non-maintainable.
What did the court decide?
The writ application was dismissed on the ground of non-exhaustion of statutory alternative remedy; the petitioner is directed to approach the Regional Deputy Director of Education for redressal.
