No interference is warranted with the order, dated

Patna High Court LPA No.1322 of 2014 dt.25-04-2017 2/2 07.04.2014, because the Learned Single Judge has given a detailed consideration to an issue, which was not even required to be interfered with in the very first place under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, especially when such engagement was on contract for a limited period and during the period of such subsistence of contract, irregularities were found in the delivery of responsibility, which was assigned to the two appellants, who were working as ANMs. This lead to the contract being rescinded. The writ court cannot sit in appeal over such contractual matters. If appellants are so aggrieved by the decision of termination of their contract or removal, they can seek common law remedy.

Appeal is dismissed.
