Mr. Shashi Dhar Jha For the Respondent/s :

Mr. Ashutosh Ranjan Pandey - AAG-15 ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA and HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE MOHIT KUMAR SHAH ORAL ORDER (Per: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA) 07-04-2022 The appellants have impugned the order passed by the learned Single Judge.

The order dated 22.09.2017 passed by the learned Single Judge reads as under:

"Heard counsel for the petitioners and counsel for the State.

Not any kind of certification obtained by a teacher showing himself to acquire training will make him entitled for matric trained scale. Rule is unambiguous, which has been brought on record as Annexure- A to the counter affidavit of respondent

3/4 no.5. Only two years training degree from a recognized institution can confer the status of training, which, in turn, can lead to grant of benefit of matric trained scale. Obviously, since these petitioners do not seem to have obtained training of recognized kind, the certification, which they have obtained, does not in any manner indicate that it is a two year training. It is only a one year training, which they have obtained, which cannot beget them matric trained scale.

Writ application has no merit. It is dismissed." During the course of arguments, a question arose whether the appellants were required to undergo one year training or two years training for getting Matric Trained payscale. The Learned counsel for the parties have not been able to refer to the Rule in this regard. However, in the counter filed on behalf of the State, he has referred to a similar case decided by this Court on 24th October, 2013 in CWJC No. 18410 of 2013, titled as Sitaram Ram Vs. The State of Bihar & Ors.

Under the circumstances, we propose that the matter be remitted to the Director, Primary Education, Bihar, Patna to take a decision.

All counsels appearing before us are agreeable to this

4/4 proposal.

Under these circumstances, we remit the matter to the Director, Primary Education, Bihar, Patna to take appropriate decision, after examining the judgment on the issue. He shall not be swayed by the impugned order.

This order has been passed with consent of the learned counsel appearing for the parties.

Accordingly, both the Letters Patent Appeals stand disposed of on the aforesaid terms.
