him to give an MBC certificate. The MBC certificate was issued to the petitioner on 20.09.2024. By then, the first counselling was over and the next counselling was held on 27.09.2024.

The learned Government Pleader (Pondicherry) submits that there is no vacancy as on date available under the general, EWS, OBC, MBC, EBC, BCM, SC and BT categories. In view of the same, the question of accommodating the petitioner may not arise.
