THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 23/07/2007, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: K.BALAKRISHNAN NAIR, J. ------------------------------ W.P.(C) No.22480 of 2007-A ------------------------------------- Dated this the 23rd day of July, 2007. J U D G M E N T The petitioner has approached this court, feeling aggrieved by the qualification prescribed, in Ext.P3 notification, issued by the Public Service Commission, in December, 2003, inviting applications for the post of Agricultural Assistant Grade. He has preferred Ext.P4 representation before the Government, against the qualification notified. He has also preferred Ext.P5 representation before the Secretary of the Kerala Public Service Commission, which is followed by Ext.P6 representation, before the Government. The petitioner does not have a case in the writ petition that the qualification notified in Ext.P3 for the above-mentioned post is in variance with the qualification prescribed by the Special Rules or Government Order. In the absence of any such challenge, the challenge against the prescription of qualification is unsustainable. The Public Service Commission is bound to go by the prescribed qualification. Therefore, no purpose will be served by directing the concerned authorities to consider the representations filed by the petitioner. In the result, the Writ Petition fails, and it is dismissed.
