JUSTICE T. MEENA KUMARI & HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE SANJAY KUMAR WRIT APPEAL NO : 951 of 2009 COMMON JUDGMENT: (Per Hon’ble Smt. Justice T. Meena Kumari). The present writ appeal is filed by the writ petitioner-appellant against the order of the learned single Judge passed in W.P.No:7201 of 2008 on 4.4.2008. Before going into the merits of the case, it is pertinent to note that the award dated 30.11.1987 in I.D No:132 of 1986 passed by the Additional Industrial Tribunal-cum-Labour Court, Hyderabad has been challenged in the year 2008 i.e., nearly after a lapse of 21 years in W.P.No:7201 of 2008. Therefore, it is needless to observe that the claim made by the appellant, appears to be time barred due to the laches as rightly observed by the learned single Judge. Hence, we feel that the order impugned herein does not warrant any interference by this Court and thereby, this writ appeal is liable to be dismissed. Accordingly, this writ appeal is dismissed. No costs. ___________________________ Justice T. MEENA KUMARI _______________________ Justice SANJAY KUMAR Dated 9th July, 2009. Dvs/Gurc HONOURABLE SMT. JUSTICE T.
