PATNA, India, Oct. 24 -- Patna High Court issued the following judgment on Sept. 24:
Appellants-State have assailed the order of the learned Single Judge dated 11.12.2019 passed in C.W.J.C. No. 17415 of 2018 only to the extent of para-7 of the order. Para-7 reads as under:
"7. Under the aforesaid circumstances, the Court is not inclined to grant any indulgence except that in future if the respondents take steps for making appointment or engagement on the post of Executive Assistant, they are required to grant one opportunity the persons who were empaneled earlier, in the event, they crossed the maximum age limit."
2. The aforementioned observation of the learned Single Judge is purely a policy matter insofar as providing relaxation of age for the future recruitment to the post of Executive Assistant. To that extent learned Single Judge had committed error. Accordingly, Para-7 of the order dated 11.12.2019 passed in C.W.J.C. No. 17415 of 2018 stands set aside. In not extending age relaxation benefit by judicial order would not be a hurdle for the Respondent to approach the State Government in seeking age relaxation for the post of Executive Assistant to be notified in future.
3. With the above observation, present L.P.A. No. 17 of 2022 stands disposed of. Pending I.As, if any, stands disposed of.
