Patna, (Bihar Times): Just a couple of days after the Patna high ourt declared his appointment as illegal the state cabinet on Saturday “reappointed” State Election Commissioner (SEC) J K Dutt with retrospective effect from June 8, 2006.
On Thursday the Patna high court held Dutt’s appointment as illegal on procedural grounds and ordered his removal. It also ordered stoppage of his salary and perks.
However, the state cabinet on Saturday reappointed him. This has brought the judiciary and legislature face to face in the state.
The cabinet also approved an increase in the monthly remuneration of Panchayat Rojgar Sewaks from Rs 2,000 to Rs 3,000.
