====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE AJAY KUMAR TRIPATHI ORAL ORDER 13-07-2017 I. A. No. 1085 of 2016 is for substitution. Names of the legal heirs are indicated in paragraph 3 of the Interlocutory Application.
Interlocutory Application is allowed.
The writ application is dismissed, because the petitioner was a retiree of the year 1986 and he is looking for the benefit of stagnation scheme, which came to an end on
Patna High Court CWJC No.12947 of 2015 (3) dt.13-07-2017 2/2 01.01.1996.
In view of the same, the expectation for such stale claim to be raked up and a demand raised is totally misplaced and not entertainable. This is so especially when the petitioner is said to have died in December, 2016. Latches are writ large on the face of record.
