The Block Education Extension Officer, Jhandaha, District Vaishali at Hajipur. 5.

Admittedly the father of the petitioner died on 14.1.1978 and this writ application seeking direction for appointment on compassionate ground has been filed on 15.1.2008 i.e. after thirty years of the cause of action. That being so, this writ application suffering from inordinate delay and unexplained laches has to be dismissed. It is ordered accordingly. Rsh (Mihir Kumar Jha, J.)
