IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.2133 of 2009 ***** Wife of Late Satya Narayan Singh, resident of village- Lodipur, P.O.-Chiraura, P.S. Naubatpur in the district of Patna. …. …. Petitioner Versus 1. The State of Bihar through its Director, Primary Education, Government of Bihar, Patna. 2. The District Superintendent of Education, Patna. 3. District Provident Fund Officer, Patna. 4. The Director, Provident Fund, Pant Bhawan, Beli Road, Patna. 5. The Headmaster, Middle School, Mahangupur, Anchal-Phulwarisharif, Patna. …. …. Respondents ----------- 2. 12.2.2009. The bonafide of the writ application does not dawn upon the High Court for the simple reason that the husband of the petitioner retired in the year 1977 and he passed away only in 2005. There is no cogent explanation as to why the husband of the present petitioner never bothered to claim any kind of retiral dues or otherwise from the respondents, probably he was well aware of the rules in this regard. The present writ application seems to be a more mercy appeal rather than substantial claim or assertion of a legal right. The writ application in absence of the proper pleadings also cannot be maintained. It is dismissed. Pawan/- (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
