Petitioner was an Ayurvedic doctor. He was posted in Government Ayurvedic College, Patna. He retried with effect from 31.05.2008. He claims that Annexure-1 by which age of superannuation of doctors of Bihar Health Services and Bihar Medical Education Services was increased to 62 years, should have been applied in the case of the petitioner and he should have been allowed to continue for two years more. There is nothing on record to show that Ayurvedic doctors were to be considered equivalent to Bihar Health Services and Bihar Medical Education Services and their status for all practical purposes was the same. In absence of such materials, petitioner cannot claim the benefit of Annexure-1. The writ application is, accordingly, dismissed. BT (J. N. Singh, J.)
