In case the duty report has not been accepted, the concerned authority should accept joining report within a specified period: Patna High Court.
This case was filled by Sumit Kumar Ram Son of Late Kailash Ram Resident of Village- Chhitraur, Ward No. 16, P.s. Matihani, District- Begusarai against the State of Bihar. The Judgment in Sumit Kumar Ram v. State of Bihar (Citation: CWJC No.2082 of 2021) was served by HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE P. B. BAJANTHRI.
THE FACT OF THE CASE:
The present case was a writ Petition filled before the learned Bench under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, 1950. This Writ Petition was filled against the resolution dated 7th of November 2019 of the District compassionate committee, Begusarai, contained in Memo No. 1423, dated 3rd December 2019 issued under the signature of the Incharge Officer, the District General Branch, Begusarai, whereby, the proposal for appointment of the petitioner on compassionate ground has been rejected on a capricious and cryptic manner.
Further the Petitioner asked the Court to direct the Respondents authorities not to discriminate the petitioner for appointment on the ground of age determination by the Medical Board, which was not implemented during life time of the father of the petitioner, who was working Chaukidar at the time of his death. Further a direction was sought against the respondents to appointment the petitioner on compassionate ground due to the death of bread earner to his family.
JUDGEMENT :
The Hon’ble Court after going through the submissions made by the parties disposed of the petition with an observation that in case an formality is required to be completed for the purpose of this case and the alleged appointment, the same shall be completed at the earliest. Further, incase the petitioner’s duty report has not been accepted as on that date, the concerned authority was directed to accept joining report within a period of two days from that date.
