The grievance of the petitioner is that although his name appears at serial no.1286 in the panel prepared for appointment on daily wages against Group-D post within the Collectorate of Jamui as evidenced from Annexure 2 but the appointment eludes him. According to the petitioner, there are yet 100 posts vacant on which he can be appointed coming from OBC category. Although Mr. Harish Kumar, learned GP-8, submits that the panel is old but in absence of instructions on the issue raised, he is not in a position to inform as to the outcome of the exercise. In the circumstances, I deem it proper to dispose of the writ petition with a direction to the District Magistrate, Jamui to

Patna High Court CWJC No.2288 of 2016 (2) dt.20-11-2017 consider the claim of the petitioner for regularization/ appointment against Group-D post, for which panel was prepared, an extract of which is placed at Annexure 2 and in case there are vacant post available within the Collectorate and the people below the petitioner have been appointed then the case of the petitioner requires a consideration. Let the exercise be carried out and be disposed of in accordance with law by a speaking order to be passed within three months from the date of receipt/ production of a copy of this order.

The writ petition is disposed of accordingly. (Jyoti Saran, J) Surendra/- U
