THE HON'BLE MR JUSTICE GHULAM MOHAMMED AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE NOOTY RAMA MOHANA RAO W.A.No.1075 of 2010 JUDGMENT (Per the Hon’ble Sri Justice Ghulam Mohammed) The appellant is a Conductor in Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation. He was subjected to departmental proceedings and after enquiry, by proceedings dated 19.12.1992, punishment of stoppage of one annual increment for a period of two years, which shall have the effect of postponing the future increments, was imposed on him. Challenging the said order, he filed W.P.No.4277 of 2010, whereby the learned single Judge by order dated 09.03.2010 dismissed the same on the ground of delay and latches. Aggrieved by the same, he filed the present appeal. 2. Heard both sides. 3. Inasmuch as the appellant was subjected to punishment in 1992 and he filed the writ petition in 2010, the learned single Judge by the impugned order dismissed the writ petition on the ground of inordinate delay and latches on his part and therefore, we are not inclined to interfere with the impugned order at this length of time. 4. Accordingly, the Writ Appeal is dismissed. No order as to costs. ______________________ GHULAM MOHAMMED, J _________________________ NOOTY RAMA MOHANA RAO, J Date:21.11.2011 sj .
