S.K. Katriar, J.1. Heard Mr. Baidyanath Thakur for the petitioners, and Mr. Syed Iqbal Ahmad for the respondents. We have also been assisted by Dr. Syed Ehteshamuddin, Pro-Vice Chancellor of the Patna University.2. Four petitioners have joined this writ petition raising a seemingly joint cause of action which really is not correct and they have separate cause of action, which was overlooked by the Registry at the time of scrutiny. However, this defect in the frame of the writ petition has been detected during the course of submissions today and, therefore, it may not be in the interest of justice to confine this writ petition to one petitioner.
