Respondents ----------- 3. 06/09/2010 Petitioner has filed this writ application for a direction to the respondents to appoint her as Shiksha Mitra for the third term. It is well known that after the Rules came into force, with effect from 1.7.2006 all posts of Shiksha Mitras stood abolished and converted into Panchayat Shikshak. Even after the Rules came into force, petitioner sat over the matter for two years and filed this writ application in 2008 for her 2 appointment for the third term on a post which stood abolished long back. This writ application suffers from delay and laches and is, therefore, dismissed. However, this order will not extinguish any right of the petitioner which may have accrued to her pursuant to the order dated 24.4.2010 passed by the appellate authority in Appeal No.23 of 2009.
