For the Petitioner/s : None. For the Respondent No.1 to 8 : Mr. Harish Kumar, G.P. 32 ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE BIRENDRA PRASAD VERMA ORAL ORDER 02-04-2015 Despite repeated calls, none appears on behalf of the petitioner in support of the present writ petition. Learned G.P.-32 appearing on behalf of the official respondents submits that the present writ petition has been filed against the notice dated 19.08.2010 (Annexure-10) issued under the signature of Deputy Secretary, Department of Panchayati Raj, Government of Bihar, Patna, calling upon the petitioner to furnish her explanation within 15 days, failing which legal action shall be taken against her in terms of Section 70(5) of The Bihar Panchayat Raj Act, 2006, as amended. According to him, the writ petition against the show cause notice is not maintainable. The petitioner could have furnished her explanation and only thereafter when
Patna High Court CWJC No.14682 of 2010 (3) dt.02-04-2015 2/2 legal action was taken, then she could have approached the appropriate forum/court for grant of appropriate relief, but that has not been done in the present case.
Be that as it may, since none is appearing on behalf of the petitioner, the writ petition stands dismissed for want of prosecution.
The interim order of stay dated 07.09.2010 passed by a Bench of this Court stands vacated.
