Susanta Dutta v. The State Of West Bengal And ORS.

Court No. 2 18.08.2023 Calcutta High Court In the Circuit Bench at Jalpairuri Appellate Side W. P. No. 1895 of 2023 (JPD 4) (S. Banerjee) Sri Susanta Dutta Vs.

The State of West Bengal & Ors.

Ms. Sumon Sehanabasi (Mondal) Mr. Salok Sah ... for the petitioner Mr. Subir Kumar Saha, Ld. AGP Mr. Momenur Rahman ... for the State Let the affidavit of service filed in court today be kept with the record.

The petitioner has submitted that though he has been allowed to join as a permanent staff after he was acquitted from a criminal case, due to latches of the concerned department more than one year has passed before he was given the posting as a permanent staff and in this one year he has lost his seniority and not only that, he has lost some monitory benefits also. He prays for giving him benefit of this lost one year for which he is not responsible.

In this one year the petitioner did not work as a permanent staff. Therefore, if he wants, damages is to be recovered and he has to file separate case

claiming damages. This court is not equipped with this awarding of damage.

With the above observation this writ application is disposed of.
