Jhatkan Singh @ Azad Singh Son of Shri Balram Singh Vs. State of Bihar ...

Court: Patna

Decided on: Aug-27-2009

Mandhata Singh, J.1. In the case, age of the petitioner has been assessed 23 years which is affirmed by the appellate court also. There is no need to lay down the fact of the case as assessment of age is only in question. It is worthless to mention that once age of the petitioner was decided by the Juvenile Justice Board which was challenged in appeal and was allowed with some direction. Now this order is affirmed by the appellate court.2. In the case, witnesses are examined on behalf of the petitioner. Certificate of birth register is filed. Thereafter, opinion of the Medical Board is obtained. Certificate of birth register has rightly been not taken into consideration as birth was registered only after making some observation on the point of assessment of age. Admit card if can be taken as certificate of matriculation is also doubted. Then evidence of the witnesses and opinion of the Medical Board remain to discuss.3. Before entering into this admissibility it is pertinent to mention...

Court: Patna

Decided on: Aug-27-2009

Navaniti Prasad Singh, J.1. Petitioner's late husband, Suraj Kumar Choudhary, was an Assistant Manager in the Bihar State Food and Civil Supplies Corporation Limited and was posted at different Godowns at different time.2. It appears that a departmental proceeding was initiated against him for alleged unaccounted shortage in respect of stocks at Rohtas. While those proceedings were pending, a supplementary chargesheet was given in respect of stocks relating to Darbhanga, Dumka, Vaishali and some other Godowns of Rohtas where he was posted. The said employee filed his reply to all those charges and participated in the enquiry proceedings. Thereafter, on 3.12.2003, the Enquiry Officer submitted his enquiry report. Enquiry report is Annexure B to the counter affidavit. I may notice here that a bare reference to the enquiry report would show that there is little or no consideration of petitioner's defence nor has any evidence at all been discussed. The enquiry report also notices in the en...
