This Court has gone through the prayer of the writ petition as also the order passed by the Division Bench in LPA No. 255 of 2022 (Dhananjay Singh vs. State of Bihar & Ors) and is of the opinion that the matter has to be placed before the learned Single Judge/an appropriate Court. The case of the petitioner is that entirely different prayer was there before the writ Court which is not the subject matter of the appellate authority where the matter was sent but alongwith the batch cases taking note of the similar order passed in Suresh Ram (CWJC No. 5489 of 2020), the matter was disposed of.

In that background, the review petition is disposed of. The order dated 12.04.2022 is recalled. The writ petition be placed before an appropriate bench.
