THE INCHARGE MEDICAL OFFICER, PRIMARY HEALTH CENTRE, BRAHMPUR IN THE DISTRICT OF BHOJPUR AT ARRA NOW IN THE DISTRICT OF BUXAR ----------- 2 9.12.2010 Heard learned counsel for the parties. Petitioner was dismissed 17 years ago i.e. in 1993. His efforts to challenge the said decision cannot succeed in view of the time span since the cause of action had arisen and the writ application has been filed. This Court is not inclined to entertain this writ application at such a belated stage and that too without cogent valid explanation for such delay. It is dismissed as such.
