Kumawat ) Shri Prashant Sharma ) for the respondents. ****** This writ petition has been filed by the petitioner aggrieved by his verbal termination on the post of Shiksha Karmi sometime in the month of September, 1996. Shri N.C. Sharma, learned counsel for the petitioner has argued that petitioner was appointed as Shiksha Karmi with Panchayat Samiti Khandar, District Sawai Madhopur vide order dated 3.10.1992. Petitioner filed a complaint against one Kailash Chand Gurjar to the Secretary, Rajasthan Shiksha Karmi, Jaipur requiring the petitioner to produce the medical certificate from a psychologist. The petitioner got himself examined by Dr. Shiv Gautam and produced a certificate. According to the said certificate, the petitioner was fit for being continued in service. The action of the respondents in terminating services of the petitioner by verbal order in the year 1996 was wholly illegal. The respondents in reply to the writ petition have opposed the writ petition and have submitted that the petitioner was 2 suffering from some psychological disease and he was undergoing treatment. If he was not aggrieved by his termination in September, 1996, he should have immediately approached this Court. The writ petition being filed with delay and latches should be dismissed. Having heard the learned counsel for the parties and perused the material on record, I find that this writ petition has been filed with the delay of more than six years in 2002, while the services of the petitioner were terminated in September, 1996. The petitioner should have approach this Court with reasonable time. Without therefore going into the merits of the case, this writ petition is dismissed for delay and latches. (MOHAMMAD RAFIQ), J.
