IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.358 of 1996 BASHISTH RAI, son of Kailash Rai, resident of Mohalla – Gaurabhashini, Ward no. 24, Police station – Sasaram, District – Rohtas, presently employee of Rohtas Collectorate and posted as Clerk (Senior Selection Grade) in the office of the Circle Officer, Sasaram, District – Rohtas. Versus 1. STATE OF BIHAR. 2. The Commissioner, Patna Division, Patna. 3. The District Magistrate cum Collector, Rohtas, District-Rohtas. 4. The Sub Divisional Officer, Sasaram, Distt. Rohtas. 5. The Additional Collector, Land Reforms, Rohtas at Sasaram, District – Rohtas. 6. Assistant District Supply Officer, Rohtas at Sasaram, District – Rohtas. ----------- 04. 26.10.2010 Withholding of three increments with cumulative effects was the order of punishment passed by the Collector, Rohtas as would be evident from Annexure-10 dated 17.9.1993. This order has been upheld in appeal by the Divisional Commissioner. Both the orders therefore are under challenge. At the outset it is hereby recorded that the petitioner retired years ago and is enjoying his pension and other benefits. In that background of the matter and taking into consideration that the two orders were passed way back in the year 1993 and 1995 respectively, no purpose would be served by raking up a dead issue at this stage. Matter is allowed to rest. The writ application stands dismissed. rkp ( Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
