Article 226 | Writ Petitions Not Maintainable for Siksha Swayam Sewaks as They Hold No Civil/Statutory Post : Patna HC

The Patna High Court ruled that Siksha Swayam Sewaks (Talimi Markaz) cannot invoke Article 226 for service-related grievances, as they neither hold a civil post nor a statutory position. The Court directed petitioners to seek redressal through administrative channels, reinforcing the bar on writ jurisdiction for contractual or informal engagements with the State.
