IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No.17444 of 2010 Rajesh Kumar Vs. Haryana Public Service Commission, Panchkula & another Present: Mr.Pardeep Solath, Advocate, for the petitioner. ***** RANJIT SINGH, J. The respondents have advertised three posts of Deputy Registrar Cooperative Societies, Haryana, which appeared in the Newspaper on 30.3.2010. The minimum essential educational qualification was Second Class Post Graduate Degree in Arts/Science/ Commerce or a First Class Bachelor Degree in Arts/ Science/Law/Business Management of a recognised University. In addition, requirement of about five years administrative experience in the Development Department was also one of the essential condition. The petitioner, who is working as a Senior Auditor in the Cooperative Department since 22.6.2004, did not apply for this post as he did not consider himself to be belonging to Development Department and, thus, perhaps thought that he did not fulfill the condition of five years administrative experience. Subsequently, however, a clarification has been issued to say that Agriculture & Horticulture, Cooperation, Animal Husbandry and Dairying, Development and Panchayats, Rural Development and Fisheries Departments would be treated as Development Departments. The grievance of the petitioner is that this clarification has been issued without issuing any corrigendum. Submission is that the petitioner has been deprived of his right to apply for the post. Since the petitioner has not submitted any application, perhaps it will not be possible to help the petitioner. The Civil Writ Petition No.17444 of 2010 : 2 : last date for submission of application is already over. If the petitioner feels aggrieved against the action of being deprived of his right of consideration/appointment, then he may have his alternative remedy of seeking damages. No case for interference in exercise of writ jurisdiction is made out. Dismissed. September 27, 2010 ( RANJIT SINGH ) ramesh JUDGE
