It is not the case of the respondents in both these cases that the candidature of the petitioners in these two cases was rejected on the ground that they have obtained degree from Hindi Vidyapeeth, Deoghar. In W.P. (S) No. 4508 of 2023 it has been asserted that the petitioner did not attend the counselling in spite of having been called for the same way back in the year 2015-16 and in the subsequent counselling she was not entitled to participate in terms of the circular for fresh counseling issued in the year 2019 and an appropriate order to that effect was also passed by the District Establishment Committee way back in the year 2019 itself. In the other case i.e. W.P. (S) No. 4156 of 2023, it has been asserted by the respondents that the petitioners had less marks than the last selected candidate in his category and therefore he was not called for counseling. 35. Thus, apparently, the respondents have not taken a stand in both the aforesaid writ petitions where counter affidavits have been filed that there is any problem with regard to the educational qualifications of the petitioners and their candidature was under consideration, although they had obtained their educational qualification from Hindi Vidyapeeth Deoghar. 35. Thus, apparently, the respondents have not taken a stand in both the aforesaid writ petitions where counter affidavits have been filed that there is any problem with regard to the educational qualifications of the petitioners and their candidature was under consideration, although they had obtained their educational qualification from Hindi Vidyapeeth Deoghar. Thus apparently, the stand of the petitioners that their candidature has not been considered as they have obtained educational qualification from Hindi Vidyapeeth Deoghar appears to be incorrect. However, considering the fact that one more counselling is to be done in terms of the judgment passed in L.P.A. No. 203 of 2022 dated 15.09.2023 and other analogous cases and judgment passed in L.P.A. No. 510 of 2023 dated 31.01.2024 and other analogous cases, this Court is of the considered view that these writ petitions are to be disposed of in terms of the aforesaid orders and the question of calling one or other petitioner for counseling will arise only when they are covered by the directions passed by this Court and the applicable circulars. LPA No. 510 of 2023 and analogous cases have been disposed of in terms of order passed in LPA No. 203 of 2022 and other analogous cases and additional clarifications/directions have been issued vide paragraph 33 of the judgment even though the Division Bench in LPA No. 510 of 2023 and analogous cases was not inclined to differ with the findings and directions issued vide order dated 15.09.2023 passed in LPA No. 203 of 2022 and other analogous cases. 36. Accordingly, these writ petitions are also disposed of in terms of order dated 15.09.2023 passed in LPA No. 203 of 2022 read with the order passed in LPA No. 510 of 2023 and analogous cases which was disposed of 31.01.2024. The findings and direction as contained in order dated 15.09.2023 passed in LPA No. 203 of 2022 are quoted as under: “57. This Court, on entirety of facts and circumstances, is of the view that the order passed by learned Single Judge needs no interference by this Court and the direction so passed by learned Single Judge needs no interference by this Court and is required to be complied with at an earliest as the vacancies is of the year 2015 and it must be put to logical end without snatching right of candidates, if they are otherwise eligible. Therefore, the appellants State are hereby directed to: (I) Initiate the process of counseling forthwith for the present petitioners by way of last opportunity as it is alleged, they have obtained more marks than the last selected candidates in the merit list in the respective districts. (II) The petitioners shall approach the Deputy Commissioners of the concerned Districts, as early as possible, preferably, within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. (III) However, in the meantime, the Deputy Commissioner of the concerned district shall give proper notice to the petitioners by way of Press Communique, advertising the notice in the local newspaper having the wide circulation in the concerned Districts and also by putting the notice on the Notice Board of the Office of concerned District Superintendent of Education. (IV) This Court hopes and trusts that the entire process of counseling will be completed within a period of further eight weeks subject to fulfilling the eligibility criteria and also if the present petitioners have secured more marks than the last selected candidates. (V) It is made clear that the entire process of selection shall be made strictly in accordance with relevant rules/regulations and judicial pronouncements, as mentioned above, within a period of four months from the date of receipt/production of copy of this order. (VI) Let it be made clear that no further counselling shall be held for any reason whatsoever as the advertisement for appointment of these teachers are of 2015 and the aforesaid directions have been issued in peculiar facts and circumstances of the case, which shall be not taken as precedent.” 37. Further clarification/direction issued in LPA No. 510 of 2023 and analogous cases as contained in paragraph 33 of the judgment is quoted as under: “33. Further clarification/direction issued in LPA No. 510 of 2023 and analogous cases as contained in paragraph 33 of the judgment is quoted as under: “33. Since it was the specific case of the writ petitioners that they were never called for counseling and that candidates securing less marks than the writ petitioners were called for counseling and were selected, it would be important to issue the following clarifications / directions in consonance with the specific stand of the various writ petitioners in the batch of cases involved in the impugned order though this Court is not inclined to differ with the findings and directions issued vide order dated 15.09.2023 passed in L.P.A. No. 203 of 2022: (a) Only those candidates are to be called for counseling who have never been called for counseling earlier in one or the other district irrespective of the fact as to whether they had participated in the counseling or not. (b) To enable the candidate to participate in the fresh counseling the concerned respondent shall verify whether a candidate below in the merit list in the concerned district has been ultimately selected irrespective of the fact as to whether such a candidate had joined or not. If that be so, then only such candidate be permitted to appear in the fresh counseling. (c) There should be one counseling to be conducted simultaneously in all the districts as was directed by this Court in W.P. (S) No. 19 of 2016 and other analogous cases which has been upheld in L.P.A. No. 168 of 2017.” 38. As observed in the aforesaid directions contained in L.P.A. No. 203 of 2022 and other analogous cases the petitioners shall approach the Deputy Commissioners of the concerned Districts, as early as possible, preferably, within a period of four weeks. 39. It is sufficient to observe that the question of counselling of one or the other petitioner would arise only if they satisfy the required conditions including the conditions mentioned in the directions passed by this Court in two Letter Patent Appeals i.e. L.P.A. No. 203 of 2022 and other analogous case and L.P.A. No. 510 of 2023 and other analogous cases both arise out of common judgment passed in W.P. (S) No. 2378 of 2019 (Paras Nath Mandal vs. State of Jharkhand). 40. These writ petitions are disposed of in the aforesaid terms. 41. Pending interlocutory application, if any, is closed.
