IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.1062 of 2006 SAHEB PRASAD SINGH @ SAHAB PRASAD SINGH SON OF LATE NAND LAL SINGH RESIDENT OF RATANPATII, P.S. SURYAPURA, ROHTAS. Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR 2. AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTION COMMISSIONE, GOVT. OF BIHAR, PATNA. 3. DIRECTOR, AGRICULTURE, BIHAR, PATNA. 4. ZILA PADADHIKARIK, KROHTAS 5. DISTRICT AGRICULTURE OFFICER, ROHTAS. 6. PROJECT EXECUTIVE OFFICER, BIKRAMGANJ, ROHTAS. 7. BLOCK DEVELOPMENT OFFICER, KARAKAT BLOCK, ROHTAS. ----------- 2 01/10/2010 Petitioner retired from service in the year 2001. He is claiming benefit of promotion/notional promotion from the year 1991 as some kind of policy decision was taken to grant promotion to such persons who had acquired a degree in Agriculture and had required experience. Petitioner is supposed to have had both but his case was not considered. This Court is not required to look into the matter for the simple reason that it is a belated kind of stale claim which has been made in the writ after more than four years of his retirement and that too claiming such a benefit for which cause of action arose more than two - 2 - decades ago. This writ application is dismissed on that ground alone as the claim raised by the petitioner is more academic than based on any substantive right accruing to him. AMIN/ (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
