Writ petition was filed for quashing decision to initiate departmental proceedings against the petitioner. Writ petition was filed in the year 2014.

This court earlier granted adjournment to counsel for the petitioner on 27.08.2019 to ascertain whether proceedings were actually initiated and if so what was the status of the proceedings.

It is submitted by counsel for the petitioner that till date in spite of his best effort he is not in a position to inform

Patna High Court CWJC No.14619 of 2014(3) dt.03-09-2019 2/2 the court about development after filing of the writ petition. Counsel for the petitioner, however, submits that direction may be given to conclude the proceedings within the stipulated time.

Since counsel for the petitioner himself is not in a position to assist the court whether proceedings was actually initiated or what was the status of the proceedings, if initiated, there is no occasion for this court to issue direction for concluding the proceedings within the stipulated period. No case for invoking jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India is made out.

Writ petition is dismissed.
