IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.17011 of 2007 VINOD THAKUR Versus THE STATE OF BIHAR & ORS ----------- 2/ 1/7/2008. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the State. The prayer in this writ application is for grant of M.A.,Trained scale. This Court finds no infirmity in the impugned order of rejection dated 3.12.2007 that the claim was highly stale and belated. The submission of the counsel for the petitioner that he had filed earlier representations which do not find mention in Annexure- 12 does not impress this Court as the law stands settled that mere filing of representations is not an adequate remedy to explain the delay unless a legal remedy was being pursued. The writ application stands dismissed. KC ( Navin Sinha,J )
