¶17

Heard the learned counsel for the parties.

¶18

The petitioner is working as a Peon in Dayanand Kanya Uchcha Vidyalaya, Jamalpur (Munger). Based on his qualification of having passed the Madhyama Examination held by the Bihar Sanskrit Shiksha Board(hereinafter to be referred to as ‘the Board’), he had been issued the certificate and marksheet by the Board, in this regard. In order to verify the correctness of the certificate and mark-sheet, the District

Patna High Court CWJC No.3023 of 2018(6) dt.14-12-2018 2/3

¶20

Education Officer, Munger, has sought verification from the Board. The petitioner claims that he had passed the Madhyama Examination in second division, after having secured total 514 marks.

¶21

This is not disputed by the Board in its counter affidavit filed that the petitioner had scored the aforesaid marks. There is some dispute, which is being raised to the effect that, though the petitioner had scored 514 marks, the mark-sheet which he had submitted for the purpose of his appointment is not correct. The petitioner has been issued duplicate mark-sheet by the Board, which also depicts that he had scored total 514 marks.

¶22

Learned counsel, appearing on behalf of the petitioner, submits that if the Board does not send the verification report showing the petitioner to have passed the Madhyama Examination and scored total 514 marks, the validity of his appointment itself will become questionable.

¶23

In view of the counter affidavit, which has been filed on behalf of the Board, I direct the Board to send the verification report, along with a copy of the duplicate marksheet, which has been supplied to the petitioner. It is also observed that if the Board intimates the District Education
