CORAM : B.R. GAVAI AND S.V. GANGAPURWALA, JJ. DATE: 09/08/2010 ORDER ORDER : 1. The selection process of 1995 has been challenged by filing the petition in 1999. The implausible explanation for such a delay is given in the petition. However, since the petition is already admitted, we are not inclined to non suit the petition on that count. 2. Neither the persons who are selected n the said selection process nor any one of them has been joined as respondent. In the event, the grievance of the petitioner could be decided, no order can be passed without hearing those persons. 2 3. The petition is, therefore, dismissed. Rule is discharged. However, there shall be no order as to costs. [ S.V. GANGAPURWALA ] [ B.R. GAVAI ] JUDGE JUDGE knp/WP 862.99
