The petitioner prays for a direction to the authorities regulating appointment of Anganwari Sevika/ Sahaika for her appointment.

Considering that the issue relates to a process which dates back the year 2012 the petitioner has delayed to seek a lawful remedy in having approached the Court after a gap of four years and the delay so caused does not persuade this Court to grant any indulgence.
