IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Civil Writ Jurisdiction Case No.12743 of 2008 Lalan Kumar Jha, son of Yasodanand Jha, resident of village Bel Raiahi, P.S. Babu Barhi, District- Madhubani. ……….. Petitioner Versus 1.The State Of Bihar through the Secretary, Health (Medical Education and Family Welfare) Department, Govt. of Bihar, New Secretariat, Bihar, Patna 2.The Director-in-Chief, Health Services, Health (Medical Education and Family Welfare) Department, Vikash Bhawan, Bailey Road, Patna 3.The Additional Director, Health Services (Admn.) Bihar, Patna 4.The Civil Surgeon-cum-Chief Medical Officer, Madhubani 5.The Incharge, Medical Officer, Primary Health Centre Madhepur, District- Madhubani. ……….. Respondents ---------------------------------- 2. 10/08/2011 As claimed by the petitioner, he was appointed as Basic Health Worker on 19.11.1989. Admittedly, his services were terminated in 1995 by the Civil Surgeon. Petitioner sat for almost ten years and filed representation in the Department on 18.7.2005. That having not been considered, he has filed this writ application in 2008. The very fact that he sat over the matter for over ten years after his termination and filed representation thereafter shows that he had accepted his termination as fait accompli. The writ application is dismissed on account of gross delay and laches. Pradeep/ ( J. N. Singh,J.)
