No. 1197 of 2017 stands allowed and disposed of.

Considered the question of admission. Appellant wants to be appointed to the post in question based on the selection process and the counselling which was conducted earlier.

Patna High Court LPA No.318 of 2017 dt.25-04-2018 2/2 A perusal of the records indicates that the earlier process of selection and counselling was cancelled because of various infirmities and after inquiry the entire process of appointment through counselling was cancelled, thereafter when the new rules had come into force, due to coming into force of the new rules there is a requirement of the vacancy being filled up as per new rules.

Finding that petitioner cannot take advantage of the previous selection process which has been cancelled, the writ petition has been dismissed indicating various reasons in the matter. We also find no infirmity in the order passed by the learned Writ Court warranting reconsideration. The appeal is dismissed.
