RAMACHANDRA MENON, J. .............................................................................. W.P.(C) No. 24684 OF 2011 ......................................................................... Dated this the 28th October , 2011 J U D G M E N T The petitioner has approached this Court seeking for a direction to include him in Ext. P3 Rank List, simultaneously praying to set aside the said List to the extent he has not been included therein. 2. The case of the petitioner is that he was an aspirant to the post of Last Grade Servant in the Various Departments in Thrissur District and was included in Ext.P2 main list on becoming successful in the objective test. However, he was never served with the memo for attending the interview and hence he was unable to attend the same. Pursuant to finalisation of selection process, Ext. P3 Rank List was published and the petitioner was not included therein. Being aggrieved of non-inclusion in Ext.P3 Rank list, the petitioner had submitted a representation before the first respondent, which is still to be acted upon. Alleging callous inaction on the part of the first respondent, the petitioner is before this Court for immediate interference. 2. Heard the learned Government Pleader as well. W.P.(C) No. 24684 OF 2011 2 3. Going by the admitted materials on record, it is seen that the petitioner has approached this Court after a deep slumber of more than three years, seeking to be included in Ext.P3 List dat ed 18.09.2008. Obviously, the petitioner was sleeping over his rights, if any, and no material is produced before this Court to draw an inference that he had approached the concerned respondent in time. The petitioner is not entitled to get any relief invoking the discretionary jurisdiction vested in this Court, as made clear by the Apex Court in AIR 1970 SC 470 (Ravindranath Bose vs. Union of India). In the above circumstance, interference is declined and the writ petition is dismissed. P.R. RAMACHANDRA MENON, JUDGE. lk
