BY THE COURT:

Anand Kanwar – Civil Appeal No.52 of 1993, decided on 8.2.1995, the petitioners therein were not held within the age for appointment to the post in reference though a direction for consideration of the representation for grant of age relaxation was given. It is submitted that case of the petitioner/s may be covered by the aforesaid judgment and accordingly a direction may be given for consideration of the representation in the light of the fact that for last 18 years, no recruitment to the aforesaid post has been undertaken.
