CHATURVEDI S/O SHRI SHIVSHANKER CHATURVEDI VILL- HARIGAON, P.S. JAGDISHPUR, DISTT. BHOJPUR Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR THROUGH THE DIRECTOR GENERAL OF POLICE AND INSPECTOR GENERAL OF POLICE OLD SECRETARIAT, BIHAR, PATNA 2. ZONAL INSPECTOR GENERAL OF POLICE PATNA 3. DEPUTY INSPECTOR GENERAL OF POLICE CENTRAL RANGE, PATNA 4. SENIOR SUPERINTENDENT OF POLICE PATNA ----------- 2. 17.3.2010 The claim in this writ application is for grant of out of turn promotion under the Bihar Police Manual in pursuance of a recommendation of 1998. The writ application has been filed after inordinate delay in 2009. Delay is vital in service matters more particularly when issues of third party right may arise in case of out of turn promotion with regard to those who may be ensconced safely in their promoted post sanguine of their promoted status. Learned counsel for the petitioner next submits that the authorities may in any event be directed to consider his representation. That shall bring the jurisdiction of this Court, cautioned in (2008) 10 SCC 115, into the arena of the 2 ‘representation syndrome’ creating litigation by the orders of this Court. While the respondents are expected to consider his representation, any orders passed thereon by them shall remain circumscribed by the aforesaid judgment of the Supreme Court in so far as the remedies of the petitioners are concerned. The application stands disposed. P. Kumar (Navin Sinha, J.)
