According to the<\/p>\n<p>                   petitioners, though process for filling up the posts had<\/p>\n<p>                   been going on for many a decades but nothing tangible or<\/p>\n<p>                   substantive was done by the respondent State except for<\/p>\n<p>                   issuing advertisement which became a cause of action for<\/p>\n<p>                   filing of these writ applications. Admitted position is that<\/p>\n<p>                   all the petitioners were over age when the advertisement<\/p>\n<p>                   was issued and that came in their way of participation in<\/p>\n<p>                   the said examination. The petitioners moved the High<\/p>\n<p>                   Court seeking exemption and permission to sit in the<\/p>\n<p>                   examination despite the age bar coming in their way but<\/p>\n<p>                   the High Court except for directing the Bihar Public<\/p>\n<p>                   Service Commission to accept the form and fees and to<\/p>\n<p>                   allow the petitioners to sit in the examination, nothing<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_1\">               -5-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>more came to be done since the Court categorically<\/p>\n<p>recorded that the results would not be declared without<\/p>\n<p>the leave of the Court. Such an order came to be passed<\/p>\n<p>for the first time atleast in one of the writ applications as<\/p>\n<p>far back as on 5.1.1997.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_6\">          The writ applications came to be admitted and<\/p>\n<p>is now being taken up for final disposal in hearing in the<\/p>\n<p>year 2010. The question which arises for consideration is<\/p>\n<p>the kind of relief which can be granted to these petitioners<\/p>\n<p>in the changed circumstance and the long passage of time<\/p>\n<p>which has gone past.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_7\">          One fact has been pointed out to the Court that<\/p>\n<p>out of many petitioners, only four had qualified in the<\/p>\n<p>written test but despite the best efforts made by them by<\/p>\n<p>filing various interlocutory applications for further<\/p>\n<p>direction with regard to declaration of their result and<\/p>\n<p>their participation in the process of selection, no order<\/p>\n<p>ever came to be passed by the Court. Keeping in view<\/p>\n<p>the above fact, so far as the rest of the petitioners are<\/p>\n<p>concerned the matter has become infructuous and dead<\/p>\n<p>for them. Non passing of examination is curtains for<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_2\">               -6-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>them so far as their claim for appointment is concerned.<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_8\">          Question with regard to the other four persons<\/p>\n<p>who claim that they had passed the written examination is<\/p>\n<p>being pressed now by the learned counsels. A direction is<\/p>\n<p>sought on the respondents keeping in mind the fact that<\/p>\n<p>there are still large number of vacancies pending and<\/p>\n<p>which can be filled up by allowing the four persons who<\/p>\n<p>had cleared their written examination to be considered<\/p>\n<p>for appointment.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_9\">          The argument may sound attractive, but the fact<\/p>\n<p>is that mere passing of the written examination does not<\/p>\n<p>give a right to these petitioners for appointment. There<\/p>\n<p>are many other steps which are taken before a final merit<\/p>\n<p>list is prepared and recommendation            made for<\/p>\n<p>appointment. The case of these four petitioners cannot be<\/p>\n<p>treated in isolation.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_10\">          Further keeping in mind that even when the<\/p>\n<p>advertisement was issued in the year 1997, all these<\/p>\n<p>petitioners were over age and the bar of age came in way<\/p>\n<p>of the petitioners in the year 1997 itself. Now the age<\/p>\n<p>bar has become a barrier in the last 12 years. Giving<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\" id=\"span_3\">                 -7-<\/span><\/p>\n<p>   them exemption in age on the basis of passing of their so<\/p>\n<p>   called written examination at this stage would be<\/p>\n<p>   misplaced and misdirected as there has to be some<\/p>\n<p>   correlation when the advertisement was made and the<\/p>\n<p>   relief for appointment can be granted. It is just a case<\/p>\n<p>   where the petitioners have missed the bus for whatever<\/p>\n<p>   reason and that cannot be undone by the Court at such a<\/p>\n<p>   belated stage. The argument made now is mere academic<\/p>\n<p>   and the Court is not inclined to pass any substantive order<\/p>\n<p>   in favour of the four candidates who have supposedly<\/p>\n<p>   passed the examination in the year 1998.<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_11\">            All these four writ applications are dismissed.<\/p>\n<p id=\"p_12\">                 (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)<\/p>\n<p>Patna High Court,<br \/>\nThe 17th August, 2010<br \/>\nAMIN\/ (N.A.F.R.)\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Patna High Court &#8211; Orders Chandrashekhar &amp;Amp; Ors vs The State Of Bihar &amp;Amp; Ors on 17 August, 2010 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA In the matters of applications under Article 226 of the Constitution of India.
