11. The State Government and the Director of Public Health and Preventive medicine who is the appointing authority ought to have considered the request of the petitioners to extend the time limit to join duty as stipulated in the appointment order considering the situation of the petitioners treating to be as special circumstances. If the petitioners are allowed to complete their Post Graduate in different specialization, it is useful to the State's Health Care System. They can contribute the State Health Care System as specialist doctors. Apart from loosing 2 ½ years time, effort and money dedicated by the petitioners, who are medical post graduate students from Tamil Nadu, towards their academics, gazillions of money spent on the students' post graduate education by the State Government would be rendered wasteful and adversely impacts the State exchequer. It is over all a loose-loose situation if the petitioners are not allowed to finish their post graduate courses just to oblige the time stipulated in the appointment order. The condition, which cuts down their chances of finishing their courses, will also put them in a disadvantageous place compared to their counterparts from other parts of the country and makes them less competent and less competitive. As such, the State Government should consider the request of the petitioners to extend the time for joining the post after completion of post graduate course to make it a win-win situation.
