10. In C.W.J.C. No. 18790 of 2018 the petitioners have stated that they were appointed in 2011, they too have challenged the order, dated 16.11.2018.

11. In C.W.J.C. No. 19274 of 2018 the petitioner states that she was appointed on 10.07.2014.

12. In C.W.J.C. No. 21401 of 2018 the petitioners were appointed in 2013 and 2014 as mentioned in Annexure 3.

13. In all the writ petitions the essential challenge to the order issued by the Director, Education, to District Programme Officer on 19.05.2018 wherein it is pointed out that out of the total Shikshak Swamsevaks. There Patna High Court CWJC No.11447 of 2018 dt27-07-2022 16/26 are 173 of them who were from general caste of muslims and did not belong to the extremely backward caste of muslims and, therefore, was directed that their services be dispensed with. Letter was sent to the District Programme Officer, Sitamarhi.

14. A letter was sent by the Director on 16.07.2018 to all the District Programme Officer to terminate the services of those volunteers/teachers teaching in the Markaz who belong to general category of muslims and were not from the caste of the concerned children who belonging to the extremely backward class of the area. It was further directed that all such volunteers be issued a show cause notice and by speaking order their service be terminated.

15. Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that earlier bunch of writ petitions came to be filed before this Court as the respondents had issued a letter on 18.01.2016 whereby the petitioners were removed from service from the post of teachers/volunteers of Markaz. It is submitted that this Court vide order passed in C.W.J.C. No. 5951 of 2016, dated 27.03.2018 set aside the order and decision to terminate the service, but, gave opportunity to the respondents to make enquiry in accordance with law after giving opportunity of hearing and show cause that the petitioners engagement is found contrary to the guidelines the respondents would be required to take appropriate decision. The petitioners were thereafter reinstated and now the present order has been passed.

Patna High Court CWJC No.11447 of 2018 dt27-07-2022 17/26

16. The coordinate Bench of this Court h as passed similar orders in other writ petitions, namely, C.W.J.C. No. 6802 of 2019 on 13.08.2019, C.W.J.C. No. 1862 of 2018, decided on 04.09.2019 and others also. Thus, learned counsel submits that the order impugned seeks to take away the service rendered by the petitioners of more than 7 to 8 years and the show cause notice as observed by this Court, issued by the respondents is an empty formality and an eye wash. It is submitted that the respondents had already taken the decision to terminate the service of the petitioners as is apparent from the order of the Director, dated 19.05.2018.

17. The learned counsel for the petitioners has submitted that the petitioners' appointment can not be said to be illegal or contrary to the scheme. It is submitted that the scheme does not bar binding on teachers/ volunteers for the Markaz who are from general caste of muslims while it mentions that the appointment should be made from persons who are from the extremely backward class of the community but they were to be given preference only. It did not in any manner mean that otherwise would be debar from participating in the selection process. The guidelines contain in the scheme, were advisory and not binding. The appointment therefore can not be said to be illegal and there was no occasion to remove the petitioners after they have worked and performed duty for a long time and having their services extended time-to-time. It is also submitted that the petitioners have already undergone a training.

Patna High Court CWJC No.11447 of 2018 dt27-07-2022 18/26

18. Learned counsel for the petitioners has also invited attention to Annexure 12, documents placed in C.W.J.C. No. 11447 of 2018, dated 01.09.2014. It is an order issued by the Director, the District Programme Officer, Supaul, explaining the guidelines and has specifically mentioned that there is no illegality in appointing persons who are otherwise eligible from the muslim community on the post of volunteers. The guidelines only talk about giving priority to the EBC candidates and on their non-availability teachers could be appointed from general caste of the muslims.

19. The State counsel have vehemently opposed the submission and stated that the petitioners were given an opportunity of hearing and, thereafter, decision has been taken to terminate their service.

"4: That at the outset, it is humbly stated that the Scheme 'Mahkadalit, Dalit Avam Alpsankhyak Atipichhra Varg Akshar Anchal Yojna' has been prepared keeping in king the following educational challenges in Bihar;
(i) In 2009, the 'Right to Free and Compulsory Education Act' was enacted. For its compliance, the Education Department has made a 'Compulsory Education Manual, 2011'. Itg is not only our duly but our responsibility to educate children in the age ground of 6 to 14 years Patna High Court CWJC No.11447 of 2018 dt27-07-2022 19/26
(ii) That according to 2011 census, the literary rte in Bihar was 63.82% and it was only 53.53% in case of females. Constant endeavour on part of the Government, in the field of primaty education has led to 99% enrollment but by the time the students reach 8th standard, a large number of the drop out.
(iii) That the analysis done of literacy and educational backwardness clearly show that education and literacy among the socially and economically backward classes is a challenge for the State of Bihar. Further, analysis of inadequacy in education, population growth, child marriage, malnutrition and health related issues have shown that the households where the mothers/women are educated, there, the children perform better in terms of education, health and other areas.
(iv) That in order to develop and uplift the backward classes, it is necessary that literacy among mothers/women is functionally achieved. There are several social evils working against women in our society. They have been discriminated for a long time.

Ony after eradicating these evils, we can make a developed, educated, knowledge based equal society. Patna High Court CWJC No.11447 of 2018 dt27-07-2022 20/26

(v) That in this background, in 2012-13, the Government of Bihar launched 'Mahkadalit, Dalit Avam Alpsankhyak Atipichhra Varg Akshar Anchal Yojna'. This Scheme is expected to rersult in a notable increase in literacy among Mahkadalits, Dalits and Minority Extremely Backward Classes, especially female literacy within these classes. The aim of the Scheme is to provide quality education and help the women and children from these communities to enter into mainstream social life smoothly. It is basically a programme for educational upliftment and activation of the group in focus. For the Talimi Markaz and Utthan Kendras have been established.

5. That to execute this Scheme, Tola Sevaks and Siksba Swayam Sevis are appointed. They are supposed to work as social workers and their main work shall include inspiring people from these communities to get property education, maintain a register of all the children and illiterate adult women who are under this scheme and to link them with literacy, educational, social change Schemes being run by the Government, among other things. They are essentially to function as motivators and facilitators.

Patna High Court CWJC No.11447 of 2018 dt27-07-2022 21/26

6. That the candidates for appointment for the position of these Tola Sevaks and Siksha Swayam Sevis (education volunteers) will be of Mahadalit, Dalit and Alpsakhyak Atipichhra families preferably belonging to that Tola or locality. Those tols in which any these categories would be in majority, then preference shall be given to candidate from Mahadalit, Dalit it or EBC minority class."

20. In the said background, learned counsel for the respondents submits that as the programme was for upliftment of the said communities children only the people who were to teach ought to be from the said category alone in order to have an inclusive development. However, as volunteers have been appointed from the categories which can not be such from mahadalit, dalit of the minority communities, their services were directed to be dispensed with as complaint was received of two persons from the extremely minority community of being deprived of appointment. The unreserved category of minority were therefore wrongly included and appointed. The learned counsel submitted that their termination does not warrant any interference.

21. I have considered the submissions.

22. The only question involved in the present petitions is whether appointment of Shikshak Swamsevaks volunteers for Taleemi Markaz from general category of the minority community can be said to be illegal or unjustified and their services likely to be terminated. Patna High Court CWJC No.11447 of 2018 dt27-07-2022 22/26

23. Close look at the guidelines issued by the Department while introducing the scheme, dated 18.08.2009, reflects that the purpose was to provide education to children between age of 6 to 10 years belonging to socially and educationally extremely backward class of muslims. The volunteers were to be appointed preferably from those caste of muslim community of which the children were appointed who were registered in the Taleemi Markaz. The word preferably used in the scheme for appointment of volunteers appears to have been treated as a guideline and out of the total volunteers appointed, several of them belonged to the general muslim community. Such volunteers continue to perform their duties for years together and ow after the State Government decided to place them on a regular rolls and continued them up to the age of 60 years with a fixed salary, the Director has issued such an order specially for some particular districts of Bihar holding such appointments to be illegal. The impugned order also directs the District Programme Officer to serve a notice of show cause to the concerned volunteers and, thereafter, terminate their services as soon as possible.

24. The very basic principles of fair play and natural justice are thus found to be flouted. A decision has been taken before whereafter show cause notice has been issued. Post decisional compliance of principles of natural justice is of no purpose. It is an eye wash and appears to have only to show a Patna High Court CWJC No.11447 of 2018 dt27-07-2022 23/26 paper compliance of the order passed by this Court in the previous round of proceedings.

25. In the earlier proceedings this Court did not examine the issue regarding the nature of appointment of the petitioners and, therefore, this Court would deal with the said aspect. It is also pertinent to notice that the Director has changed his stand which he has rook earlier in 2014. It would be appropriate to quote the clarification issued by the Director on 01.09.2014.

26. The order impugned dated 19.05.2018 passed by the Director does not mention about his above quoted earlier order. It also does not deal with the aspect and circumstances in which persons belonging to general category of muslims could be appointed.

27. In the circumstances this Court does not have any hesitation in holding that the orders impugned, dated 19.05.2018 and 16.07.2018, and Patna High Court CWJC No.11447 of 2018 dt27-07-2022 25/26 further communication issued to the District Programme Officer, dated 20.05.2018, for removing the petitioners from the post of Shikshak Swayamsevaks (volunteer teachers) are not sustainable in law.

28. So far as case of Shama Parveen is concerned, this Court finds that she has worked as volunteer teachers only for a short period up to 2016, as the certificate of experience issued on 01.10.2016 and recognized by the Block Education Officer in his letter, dated 01.10.2016, has been duly upheld by this Court in its order, dated 09.10.2016, passed in C.W.J.C. No. 5027 of 2018, she would be entitled to the same benefit as those volunteer teachers who were appointed in 2009 and will have to be considered for absorption as teachers. Therefore order directing her apply under the scheme of 2018 is unjustified as scheme of 2018 would not be applicable on her as she was appointed under the earlier scheme and the same is set aside by an order, dated 15.04.2019, passed in Case No. R.M. 39/18-19. It has been pointed out that the State Government has again issued guidelines for appointing Shikshak Swamsevaks Taleemi Markaz in 2018. however, such scheme would be applicable only for fresh appointment and ot to those who were already appointed from 2009 onwards under the earlier scheme.

29. Those petitioners who are continuing in terms of the interim order passed by the Court in their cases, shall continue to perform their duties and be also entitled to received salary from the date it was stopped by the respondents. The salary shall be released within a period of two months. The Patna High Court CWJC No.11447 of 2018 dt27-07-2022 26/26 petitioners would be also entitled to receive interest at the rate of 6% of their arrears of salary.

30. Those petitioners whose services were dispensed with shall be entitled to reinstatement with continuity in service and would be also entitled to payment of their salary as above. However, for the period they have not worked, they will be only given benefit of notional salary following principles of no work no pay. The petitioners would be now allowed to continue as regular teachers as per the scheme. The petitioners shall be granted the same status as granted to other volunteers of the Taleemi Markaz who have been taken over by the State Government.

31. The writ petition is accordingly allowed and the compliance has to be made within a period of three months. No costs.
