IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.6691 of 2006 BAIJ NATH GUPTA SON OF LATE RAM NATH SAHU RESIDENT OF DANAPUR, P.S. DANAPUR, DISTRICT PATNA. Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR THROUGH THE SECRETARY TO THE GOVERNMENT, AGRICULTURE DEPARTMENT, GOVT. OF BIHAR, PATNA. 2. THE DIRECTOR OF AGRICULTURE, GOVT. OF BIHAR, PATNA. 3. THE REGIONAL DIRECTOR OF AGRICULTURE, AGRICULTURE RESEARCH INSTITUTE, PATNA. 4. THE DIRECTOR (ADMINISTRATION), RAJENDRA AGRICULTURE UNVIERSITY, PUSA, SAMASTIPUR. ----------- For the petitioner :- Mr. Purushottam Kumar Jha. For the State :- Mr. Ranjeet Kumar Pandey, A.C. to G.P. XIX For respondent no. 4 :- Mr. S. N. Pathak. ------ 2 10/11/2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the Respondents. It is a misplaced kind of litigation which is being carried on by the petitioner for decades together. Some way down he realised that some of his juniors have been given selection grade with effect from 1.4.1964 and after he retired in the year 1995, he is also of the opinion that he should get such a benefit with effect from 1.4.1964. There has to be some kind of time limit. Whether such a claim of 1964 should be entertained or delved into in 2010 which has long gap of history, this Court is not - 2 - inclined to grant it by a judicial order. The speaking order even otherwise passed by the respondents seems to be for cogent and valid reasons and does not require any interference by this Court. This writ application is dismissed.
