1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY ORDINARY ORIGINAL CIVIL JURISDICTION WRIT PETITION NO.2635 OF 2005 Suresh Paswan Petitioner vs. Union of India & ors. Respondents Mr.H.Toor i/b.M/s.S.K.Legal & Associates for the petitioner. CORAM : F.I.REBELLO & ANOOP V. MOHTA,JJ. DATED : 19th October, 2006 P.C. A statutory complaint has to be filed within 60 days. In the instant case, the statutory complaint has been filed after 8 years. The case of the petitioner is that he was not aware of the promotion of his juniors. Respondents have filed reply and in para 11 it has explained that the petitioner’s juniors had fulfilled the requisite qualification whereas the petitioner had not. Considering that the statutory complaint was filed after 8 years and even if we consider the expression to be reasonable time, it is much beyond the concept of reasonable time as explained by Courts bearing in mind the provisions of the Limitation Act. Considering the above, no interference is called for. Petition is rejected. ( F.I. REBELLO, J.) F.I. REBELLO, J.) F.I. REBELLO, J.) ( ANOOP V. MOHTA,J. ) ANOOP V. MOHTA,J. ) ANOOP V. MOHTA,J. )
