For the Petitioner/s :

Mr.Arun Kumar For the Respondent/s :

Mr.Madanjeet Kumar (Gp20) ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE ANIL KUMAR UPADHYAY ORAL ORDER 13-09-2019 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the counsel appearing on behalf of the State.

The grievance of the petitioner in the present writ application is non-payment of salary.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the service of the petitioner has been approved by the University nd his case was recommended by the University.

Patna High Court CWJC No.18861 of 2019(2) dt.13-09-2019 2/2 Learned counsel for the University would submit that payment is only possible if the adequate fund is made available to the University by the State.

Considering the aforesaid, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the State to take appropriate decision with regard to allotment of fund to the University as payment of salary to the teaching and non-teaching employees depends on the allocation of fund by the State and the State has onerous duty to provide fund in terms of the scheme of the Bihar State Universities Act.

The Director, Higher Education is required to do the needful at the earliest preferably within a maximum period of 60 days from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order so that the payment may be made to the petitioner by the University.

With the aforesaid, the writ application stands disposed of.
