Mr.Smt. Kumari Amrita -Gp3 ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE SHIVAJI PANDEY ORAL JUDGMENT Date : 12-07-2019 Heard learned counsel for the parties.

In this case, learned counsel for the petitioner has claimed that admittedly, the certificate of Reena Kumari, who was appointed on the post of Anganwari Sevika, has been found to be forged and fabricated and, on that account, she was dispensed with the services of Anganwari Sevika and, in the panel, the petitioner is the next one and, she should be appointed in her place on the post of Angawari Sevika.

Patna High Court CWJC No.2210 of 2017 dt.12-07-2019 2/2 The District Programme Officer, after recording the fact that the selection of Reena Kumari was illegal, recommended for taking action against Gitanjali Kumari, Supervisor and directed for fresh selection.

If the petitioner is not satisfied with the direction of the District Programme Officer, she could have filed an appeal before the Appellate Authority but, instead of filing appeal, she has straightway come to this Court.

In that view of the matter, this Court does not find any merit in the present writ application. Accordingly, the same is dismissed.

The petitioner, if so advised, may challenge the order passed by the District Programme Officer before the Appellate Authority.

If the petitioner files an appeal, the Appellate Authority, while considering the limitation, will take into account the pendency of this writ application before this Court. (Shivaji Pandey, J) rishi/- AFR/NAFR NAFR CAV DATE NA Uploading Date 16.07.2019 Transmission Date
