Patna High Court CWJC No.12385 of 2014 dt.08-04-2019 2/2 3 The case of another similarly situated person, namely, Shyam Kumar Verma was earlier considered by this Court in a proceeding arising out of CWJC No 22743 of 2012. This Court, under order dated 01.05.2014, had held the prayer to be not maintainable since the post of Accounts Clerk was a lower post in scale and salary than what the petitioner as a Steno-Typist is getting. In the instant case also, petitioner, being Steno-Typist, is claiming to be posted on the lower post of Accounts Clerk. 4 Even though the case of similarly situated person has been declined by this Court and petitioner has annexed order of this Court as Annexure 4, the same prayer has been made by the petitioner in the instant proceeding, which was denied in proceedings arising out of CWJC No 22743 of 2012. 5 Writ petition is dismissed.
