Mr. Anil Kumar Singh ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE MADHURESH PRASAD ORAL ORDER 27-08-2019 The writ petition has been filed alleging irregularities in selection of Anganwari Sevika for Center Code No. 56 in Ward No. 4 of district Rohtas. The petitioner has not availed of the remedies under the guidelines and has approached this Court directly.

The degree and qualification of the private respondent, which formed basis of her selection, has been alleged to be ineligible for consideration in the matter of selection of Anganwari Sevika. The issue, if raised before the

Patna High Court CWJC No.14303 of 2014(2) dt.27-08-2019 2/2 authorities under the guidelines, could have been resolved. Without doing so, the petitioner has directly approached this Court. Objection to this extent is also raised by the State Counsel.

Since such objection has been raised by the State Counsel, this Court would grant the petitioner a liberty to avail of the remedies under the extant guidelines without four weeks. If the same is done, the authorities would be obliged to consider petitioner's claim without raising the issue of delay after hearing necessary parties and dispose of the same by a reasoned and speaking order in accordance with law.

The writ application stands disposed of.
