5.3.2009 Present Mr. Sanjeev Bhushan, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. R.K. Sharma, Sr. Addl. AG with Mr. Vivek Thakur, Addl. AG and Mr. Anil Jaswal Dy. AG for the respondents No. 1 and 2. CWP(T) No. 3236/2008 (OA No. 1428/2005) The present petition was filed on 22nd May, 2005. According to the petitioner’s averments the cause of action for seeking the benefit of appointment as Assistant Engineer arose in the year 1991. In my considered view, there is nothing on record to explain the inordinate delay in seeking redressal of his grievance. Further, public appointment to public office has to be totally in accordance with the R & P Rules and through the procedure adopted by Public Service Commission, Himachal Pradesh. There cannot be any back door entry to any public post. In this view of the matter the petition being without any merit is dismissed. (Sanjay Karol), Judge. March 5, 2009 (PK)
