Respondents ----------- For the petitioner: Mr. Shiva Shankar Prasad Singh, Advocate For Respondents: Mr. Raghib Ahsan, A.S.C. ----------- 2. 28.3.2011 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned Assistant Solicitor General for the Union of India. The petitioner seeks a direction on the respondent authorities to allow him to appear in the Medical Test. The petitioner had applied for the post of Constable (GD) in the C.R.P.F. After qualifying in the physical test, he was sent his Admit Card for appearing in the Medical Test. The date fixed for the Medical Test was 11.1.2011. However, it is submitted by learned counsel for the petitioner that the said Admit Card was dispatched by registered post from G.P.O., Patna on 7.1.2011, but the same reached the petitioner’s post office, - 2 - Gosainpur (wrongly mentioning District-Bhojpur instead of District-Buxar) on 14.1.2011 and delivered to the petitioner on the same date. In support of the same, the petitioner has filed a certificate issued by the Post Office. Thereafter, the petitioner approached the authorities on 15.1.2011 itself, but no action has been taken compelling the petitioner to approach this Court. It is evident from the aforesaid facts that the petitioner could not appear on 11.1.2011 because the communication of the said date itself reached him on 14.1.2011. It was, thus, impossible for him to have appeared on the earlier date. In the above circumstances, the writ application is allowed and the authorities of the respondent C.R.P.F. are directed to permit the petitioner to appear in the Medical Test on a date to be fixed by them. Let the same be done within a period of three weeks from the date of receipt/ production of a copy of this order. VPS ( Ramesh Kumar Datta, J. )
