The District Teacher Appointment Authority, East Champaran, Motihari .......Respondents ---------------------------------- 3 01-12-2011 Heard learned counsel for the appellant and learned counsel for the State. We are in agreement with the views of the writ court that for challenging the appointment of another person on the post of Shiksha Mitra made in the year 2004, the appellant took no steps before the prescribed authorities and only after the Rules of 2006 came into force in July, 2006 he challenged the earlier selection on the post of Shiksha Mitra when under the 2 new Rules the post became that of Panchayat Teacher and only in respect of such posts grievance could be raised before the Block Development Officer. In any case, the writ petition filed in the year 2010, in our view, has been rightly dismissed on account of delay. The appeal is, therefore, dismissed. BKS/- (Shiva Kirti Singh, J.)
