Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the petitioner and the three other female candidates applied for the post of Anganbari Sevika in village Dhaniawa, Panchayat – Pes, Ward No. 4, Nardiganj, Nawada. They were Rubi Kumar, W/o Binay Kumar (respondent no. 7), Nitu Kumari W/o Satish Kumar, Sony Kumari W/o Santanu Kumar and Babita Kumari (petitioner) W/o Bipul Kumar. It is further submitted that at the time of application, Rubi Kumari, who was then functioning as a ward member & Up-mukhiya of the same ward could not have filed her application without tendering her resignation and, therefore, her application was fit to be rejected in accordance with law and the guidelines relating to the appointment of Anganbari Sevika. He further submits that instead of doing so, the respondents have proceeded to appoint her on the post which is wholly irregular and warrants interference by this Court. Learned counsel for the petitioner, thus, submits that the other applicants were also not eligible as the father-in-law of Nitu Kumari was a retired School Teacher and could not be considered for the post in view of the law of appointment where as Sony Kumari was also not a fit candidate as she did not come in the Jati Bahulta. This, left the petitioner, Babita Kumari, to be the only eligible candidate but ignoring all settled principles
