SANJEEV PRAKASH SHARMA HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE BIPIN GUPTA Order 07/05/2026 1. Heard. 2. The appellant has challenged the order dated 27.03.2003 by filing a writ petition in the year 2023. The learned Single Judge dismissed the same on the ground of gross delay and laches. 3. We observe that there were no justified reasons on record for approaching the Court at such a belated stage. We also observe that the punishment order was challenged in appeal and finally the Second Appellate Authority decided the same in the [2026:RJ-JP:19424-DB] (2 of 2) [SAW-807/2025] month of January, 2013. For more than ten years, the orders were not challenged further in the High Court. 4. Learned counsel for the appellant submits that the orders are per se bad in law and fair opportunity was not given. It is submitted that the appellant was unwell and he could not be declared as a deserter. 5. We have gone through the writ petition filed by the petitioner and apart from vague submissions regarding family disturbance, medical problems and serious family problems, there is no specific proof of the appellant being unwell or that he was prevented for any good reason from not joining back his duties. 6. Therefore, on merits too, prima facie, no case is made out. 7. Taking into consideration the overall facts, there is a gross delay even after the rejection of the appeal in January, 2013. The order passed by the learned Single Judge dismissing the writ petition cannot be said to be unjustified. 8. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed. 9. Pending application(s), if any, shall also stand dismissed. (BIPIN GUPTA),J (SANJEEV PRAKASH SHARMA),ACTING CJ DIKSHA/RAJAT/27
