IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Civil Writ Jurisdiction Case No.15910 of 2011 Dharmendra Kumar Choudhary son of Late Mahavir Prasad Choudhary, resident of Akharaghat Road, in front of G.D. Mother School, Mohalla- Sikandarpur, P.O.- Muzaffarpur, P.S. Muzaffarpur Town, Dist.- Muzaffarpur. ----Petitioner. Versus 1. The State Of Bihar 2. The Secretary, Urban Development, Government of Bihar, Patna. 3. The Commissioner, Tirhut Division, Muzaffapur. 4. The Municipal Commissioner, Muzaffarpur Municipal Corporation, Muzaffarpur. --Respondents. ------------ 02 19.09.2011 Heard learned counsels for the petitioner and respondent Municipality. Petitioner is aggrieved by the order contained in letter bearing memo no. 1430, dated 14.07.2008, passed by the Municipal Commissioner, Muzaffarpur Corporation, whereby, on a conclusion of a departmental proceeding, the authorities inflicted punishment of withholding of increment for 02 years with cumulative effect as also awarding punishment of censure. The said order was passed in the year 2008. The present writ petition has been filed in 2011. Considering the articles of charges which were held proved in enquiry, the nature of punishment inflicted upon the petitioner and unexplained delay in challenging the sustainability of the order, this Court does not find it to be an appropriate case where extraordinary and discretionary writ jurisdiction can be invoked. This Court gets an impression that petitioner initially 2 acquiesced in the order. The application is dismissed. Sym ( Kishore K. Mandal, J.)
