¶25

In pursuance to the order dated 25.2.2019 passed by

¶26

this Court in the present case, the respondents-State Government has granted promotions to the petitioners herein and others, who are Matric Trained Assistant Teachers and now, they have been granted Graduate Trained Scale on the basis of the gradation list of 2012 against the available vacancies as per the roster and to that effect, an order dated 13.3.2019 has been issued under the signature of the District Programme Officer (Establishment), Patna and the District Education Officer, Patna. It appears that thereafter, the order of posting of the petitioners herein and others has been issued by the District Education Officer, Patna vide memo dated 18.6.2019, upon counselling have been made by the respondents.

¶27

The learned counsel for the petitioners submits that though the aforesaid orders have been passed by the Respondents-State Government purportedly on the basis of the 2012 gradation list, but the date of promotion has been fixed not from the year, 2012 but with effect from the date of issuance of the said letter for promotion i.e. dated 13.3.2019. In such view of the matter, the learned counsel for the petitioners submits that

¶28

¶29

the petitioners be granted liberty to approach the concerned respondent authorities for rectification of the said anomaly.

¶30

The learned counsel appearing for the intervenors submits that the intervenors be granted liberty to assail the aforesaid order of promotion dated 13.3.2019, if the intervenors are still aggrieved by the same.

¶31

Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, I deem it fit and proper to dispose of the present writ petition with liberty to the petitioners and the intervenors to approach the concerned authorities, in case, they are aggrieved by the order of promotion dated 13.3.2019, upon which the concerned respondents shall take necessary action in accordance with law.

¶32

It goes without saying that since the petitioners, upon being granted promotion, as aforesaid, are eligible for being considered for selection on the post of Headmaster, process whereof is still going on, therefore, it is hereby directed that the case of the petitioners be also considered in the ongoing selection process, initiated in pursuance to the advertisement issued vide memo no. 484 dated 31.3.2018, as modified by letter dated 9.4.2018, which are annexures 8 and 9 to the writ petition.

¶33

The writ petition stands disposed of on the aforesaid

vacated on account of disposal of the present writ petition.
