In the writ petition filed in 2010, the appellant sought to challenge the order dated 31st October 2005 made by the Vice- chancellor of the respondent Tilka Manjhi Bhagalpur University, Bhagalpur. The learned single Judge has rejected the writ petition on the ground of delay, laches and acquiescence. We agree with the learned single Judge. The Appeal is devoid of merit.
