JUSTICE SHIVAJI PANDEY ORAL JUDGMENT Date: 09-09-2016 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and counsel for the State.

In this case, the petitioner has made a prayer to restrain the authority from removing the petitioner from the post of Anganbari Sahaika in Anganbari Kendra, Aura within the Mokaram Gram Panchayat, Bhagwanpur, Kaimur. A further prayer has been made for giving a direction to the authority to appoint the petitioner on the vacant post of Anganbari Sahaika in the said Anganbari Kendra and also for payment of honorarium to the petitioner as she has claimed

Patna High Court CWJC No.12253 of 2013 dt.09-09-2016 that she has performed the duty since May, 2007 till date. Instead of approaching this Court, the petitioner should have approached to the competent authority as provided under the ICDS Scheme. In that view of the matter, this writ petition is disposed of with a liberty to the petitioner to approach to the proper forum raising her grievance.

It is, however, made clear that if the petitioner approaches before the competent authority, he will be obliged to consider the case of the petitioner and will take a decision within a period of four months thereafter.
