Respondents ----------- 2. 14.12.2009. No one appears for the petitioner. Counsel for the State is present. The prayer of the petitioner in this writ application reads as follows:- “1. That by this writ petition the petitioner prays for issuance of appropriate writ(s)/order(s)/direction(s) commanding the respondent authorities to appoint the petitioner as a Constable in the 9th Battalion of Bihar Military Police, Jamalpur and also grant him all consequential benefit for which he might be entitled under the law and in the facts and his case.” On a reading of the writ application it does not appear that the petitioner had produced the original documents which he was asked to do by letter of the Commandant Bihar Military Police, 9, Jamalpur, dated 22.9.2001 at least till filing of the writ application. 2 The offer of appointment dated 22.9.2001 as contained in Annexure-2 was infact subject to verification of the original certificates to be produced by the petitioner and therefore if the petitioner has made no averment in the writ application regarding filing of his original certificate before the Commandant Bihar Military Police, Jamalpur or had not cared to produce his original certificates for verification before the authority at the relevant point of time, he cannot be allowed to now raise such question after a period of eight years. That being so, this writ application by efflux of time as also conduct of the petitioner has become academic and hence infructuous. This writ application is accordingly dismissed. kanchan (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
