CORAM : SRI ANANDA SEN, J. ------ For the Petitioner(s) : Mr. Ajay Kumar Jha, Advocate Mr. Ankit Burman, Advocate For the Respondent(s) : Mr. Indranil Bhaduri, SC-IV …...... 02 /11.08.2025: Heard the parties. 2. It is the case of the petitioner that respondent nos. 5 and 6 have been illegally selected as Anganwari Sewika and Anganwari Sahayika respectively of Anganwari Centre Burudih-II, PO Jugilong, PS Nimdih, District Seraikella Kharsawan by the Aam Sabha. 3. It is the case of the petitioner that as per the rules a person selected should be daughter-in-law of the same area but these two respondents are not. Thus, their appointment is bad. 4. After going through the petition, I find that there is nothing in the petition to suggest what is the locus standii of the petitioner to file this petition. He is merely a Ward Member. 5. Be that as it may, since the petitioner has already made representation before the Child Development Project Officer, Nimdih, I direct the Child Development Project Officer, Nimdih to verify the allegation levelled against the respondent nos. 5 and 6 to 2025:JHHC:23023 2 the fact that whether they are daughter-in-law of Burudih-II, PO Jugilong, PS Nimdim, District Seraikella Kharsawan or not and thereafter pass an appropriate order. 6. With the aforesaid observation and direction, this writ petition stands disposed of. (ANANDA SEN, J.) Tanuj/
