CHANDRA NATH JHA Vs. STATE OF BIHAR

JUDGEMENT

(1.) Leave granted.

(2.) We have heard the learned counsel for the parties.

(3.) The appellants were appointed prior to 29.1.1981 by the then Managing Committee of the R.B.T.S. Homeopathic Medical College and Hospital, Muzaffarpur. A Notification dated 29.1.1981 was issued by the Health Department, Government of Bihar to take over the private medical colleges with effect from 1.4.1981. In the Notification dated 29.1.1981, it was made clear that these institutions will be taken over by the Government of Bihar with effect from 1.4.1981. Therefore, in our considered view, the liability of the State Government would arise from the date these private institutions were taken over by the State Government i.e. with effect from 1.4.1981.
