                                                                         Mr. S. Pattanaik, Advocate

                             CORAM:
                                DR. JUSTICE B.R. SARANGI
                                MR. JUSTICE MURAHARI SRI RAMAN

                                                             ORDER

07.08.2023 Order No. This matter is taken up through hybrid mode.

02.

2. As it appears, the order impugned has been passed on 08.02.2021, the writ petition has been filed on 19.12.2022 and in the meantime more than one year has passed. Therefore, the writ petition suffers from delay and laches.

3. In that view of the matter, this Court is not inclined to entertain this writ petition at this belated stage, as the writ petition suffers from delay and laches, in view of the judgment/order of this Court in the case of State of Odisha v. Surama Manjari Das (in W.P.(C) No.15763 of 2021 dismissed on 16.07.2021), which has been confirmed by the Apex Court in SLP(C) Diary No.9259 of 2023.

4. Accordingly, the writ petition merits no consideration and the same is hereby dismissed.
