3. Pending application(s), if any, shall also stand disposed of."
7. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners, at this stage, submitted that the condition imposed by the Apex Court that those order will be confined to the writ petitioners before the Apex Court, therefore, the same would not come in a way of this petitioners to the effect that the present is a belated writ petition. He informs that the that the petitioner's' result was published on 21.10.2023 and the petitioners filed the present writ petition in the year 2024 which shows that the petitioners have been conscious of their rights and cannot be said to be indolent or a fence sitter for which he has given sufficient reason in paragraph no. 24 of the writ petition.
8. Heard the parties.
9. To answer, as to whether, the present writ petition is maintainable or not, I proceed to verify from the records and the pleadings made in the writ petition, as well as, the above orders referred by the petitioner claiming equal treatment. The Advertisement No. 02 of 2011 is dated 16.07.2011 and in respect of the petitioner of earlier writ petition, the empanelment
11/12 of the candidates in respect of the district concerned either is of year 2019, while the selected candidate panel/list was prepared in case of the petitioner in the year 2023 after much delay. I also find from the records that the block wise merit list was prepared in respect of these petitioners and petitioners have stated in Para 13 of the writ petition that they have been discriminated with those who have been selected in another Block, who have less marks than the cut-off marks and the said empanel was prepared at the Block Level, which is contrary to the decision of this Court in CWJC No. 11645 of 2019, which has been affirmed in LPA No. 645 of 2021. I find that the petitioners cannot be held to be fence sitter as in the District of Madhepura, the action for preparing panel was prepared after much delay i.e.
after passing of the order 05.02.2021 in CWJC No. 11645 of 2019 and order/judgment dated 26.06.2024 in LPA No. 645 of 2021. The process is still continuing and the petitioners cannot be held to have approached before this court after delay or they can be held to be fence sitter.
10. Considering the fact that out of the total vacancy notified for the District of Madhepura is 434 for the rural area and 39 for the urban area. The unfilled vacancy which is still remaining in rural area is 128 and in urban area is 24. The
12/12 petitioners have claimed to grant them similar relief in light of the judgment passed by this Court in LPA No.645 of 2021, which has been affirmed by the Apex Court in SLP Nos. 21079 of 2024 and 23768 of 2024.
11. Under the above mentioned facts and circumstances, the Director General of Police (Home Guard), Bihar is directed to consider the case of the individual petitioners. The petitioners, if so advised, file their individual comprehensive representation giving all the details in respect of their service particulars and fulfillment of their candidature to be considered in light of the judgment/order dated 05.02.2021 in CWJC No. 11645 of 2019, which has been affirmed by the Division Bench of this Court vide order/judgment dated 26.06.2024 passed in LPA No. 645 of 2021.
12. With aforesaid observations/directions, the present writ petition is disposed of.
