Case No. 97 of 2006 (Tr. No. 3193 of 2011) on the ground that no offence is made out.

The case of the Block Development Officer, Garkha, Saran is that the Petitioner applied for appointment on the post of Aganbari Sahayika on 04.09.2004 upon which she was appointed and confirmed but later on it was found that the documents given by her were not genuine.

Patna High Court Cr.Misc. No.31655 of 2012 dt.12-02-2015 department for selection on such posts. The document which was considered by the authorities for her appointment was genuine and after two year of such appointment this case was filed. Even if the allegation is conceded at best an administrative lapse is made out in the facts of the case. Also, subsequently, the appointment of the Petitioner was set aside.

Considering the aforesaid, the application is allowed and the proceeding as against the Petitioner including the order of cognizance dated 20/21.11.2011 passed by the Judicial Magistrate, Saran at Chapra in Garkha P.S. Case No. 97 of 2006 (Tr. No. 3193 of 2011) is, hereby, set aside.
