IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.9437 of 2006 KUMARI POONAM Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 3 17-07-2008 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the Bihar School Examination Board ( hereinafter referred to as ‘the Board’ for the sake of brevity ). This writ petition has been filed by the petitioner for directing the respondents including the authorities of the Board to publish her result of Primary Teacher Training Examination for the Sessions 1987-89 which was held in the year 1991 after her form and fees were accepted and after her admit card was issued by the Board. It is also claimed by the petitioner that her answer books were evaluated but her result has not been published till date. On the other hand learned counsel for the respondent-Board submits that the examination was held in the year 1991 and the instant writ petition has been filed after fifteen years in the year 2006 and hence no record is available except the concerned tabulation register of the Board in which the result of the petitioner has not been prepared and hence the authorities of the Board are unable to make any verification and issue any mark-sheet after such a long time. This Court should not grant liberty to any person to raise a matter at any time when he chooses to come to this Court for redressal of his grievances. The Court is meant for vigilant person and not for sleepy and indolent persons. Furthermore the petitioner could not show any valid material to justify such an inordinate delay. - 2 - In the aforesaid facts and circumstances, this Court cannot issue a direction to the respondent-authorities for publication of result of the petitioner. Accordingly, this writ petition is dismissed. B.Tiwary/ S. N. Hussain, J )
