THIS WRIT APPEAL HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 27/08/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: KURIAN JOSEPH & C.T.RAVIKUMAR, JJ. ---------------------------------------------- W.A. No.1904 of 2009 ---------------------------------------------- Dated 27th August, 2009. J U D G M E N T Kurian Joseph, J. Appellant is the writ petitioner. It is the admitted position that she acquired the qualification for appointment to the post of Lower Division Typist only on 30.6.2006. The last date fixed for submission of the application is 15.2.2006. Thus, admittedly as on the last date of submission of the application for the post, the petitioner was not in any case qualified. For the only reason that she was permitted to appear for the examination, she is not entitled to any equitable relief since in matters of appointment, the Public Service Commission will have to go by the settled principles. Since the petitioner was not qualified as on the last date of submission of the application, there is no merit in the Writ Appeal. It is accordingly dismissed. KURIAN JOSEPH, JUDGE.
