WP(C) 3148/2011 BEFORE THE HON BLE MR. JUSTICE HRISHIKESH ROY The petitioners claim appointments to posts of teachers in Schools within Barpet a Sub-Division, now under Baksa District, on the basis of a purported selection made in the year 1999, in pursuant to the advertisement of 3.4.1998 (Annexure-1) . It appears from the case record that the petitioners were the wait listed candid ates in the list of 3.2.1999. But it is pointed out by Mr. K Das, learned standi ng counsel, BTC that the select list in question prepared in the year 1999 has a lready expired and no appointment can be claimed from the expired list and that too by the wait listed candidates. Although the learned counsel for the petitioners Mr. S Ali submits that appointm ents were also given to some of the waitlisted candidates, he can’t specify as t o when such appointments were given. As regards the prayer for similar order as was passed on 6.6.2008 in WP(C) No.23 11/2008 (Geeta Brahma vs. State of Assam), I find that, it was a simple order fo r disposal of the petitioner’s representation and considering the passage of tim e, I’m not inclined to pass a similar order in the present case. Taking into account that the life of the select list has already expired and tha t petitioners are the waitlisted candidates in a select list of 3.2.1999, I see no legally enforceable right in their favour, to claim appointment on the basis of such old and expired select list. Therefore, I see no merit in this case and the same is accordingly dismissed.
