IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.6530 of 2007 Ran Vijay Bahadur Singh, son of Shri Radha Singh, resident of Village Rajapur, Post Office Giridhar Baraon, P.S. Nawanagar, Dist. Buxar. -------- Petitioner Versus 1. The State of Bihar. 2. The Secretary, Human Resources Department, Governing Body, New Secretariat Building, Patna. 3. The District Superintendent of Education, Buxar. --------- Respondents ----------- 2 14.09.2011 Heard learned counsel for the parties. Having regard to the fact that the petitioner seeks to raise a question of his promotion in the izoj osrueku of the post of Teacher, which according to his case had become due to him in the year 1986, this Court must dismiss this writ application on account of delay and laches on the part of the petitioner in filing this writ application. Such writ application, having been filed on 17.5.2007 with regard to cause of action of the year 1986, cannot be maintained, specially when the petitioner has also retired from service in the year 2002 and has drawn all his salary emoluments as also retirement benefit on the basis of his last salary paid to him as a Teacher in the 2 Matric Trained Pay-scale in the senior scale. That being so, this application is wholly misconceived and the same is, accordingly, dismissed. Rsh (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
