He submitted a representation for the same which was examined by the Liability Committee and which was rejected by the Committee as far back as in 1994. After eight years thereof he filed a writ petition challenging the decision of the Liability Committee. That writ petition was dismissed giving petitioner liberty to take such recourse as may be available to him. Petitioner then sent a legal notice to the department. The department replied to the legal notice through their lawyer referring to the decision of the Liability Committee and the disposal of the writ petition and repudiated their liability. Petitioner has once again come to this Court for the same relief - 2 - which he has failed to get on the earlier occasion. The writ petition is thus dismissed. Shageer (Navaniti Prasad Singh, J)
