P.C. : 1. By way of this Public Interest Litigation, the petitioner has prayed that respondents may be directed to maintain the age of retirement uniformly to the employees of each and every department who are governed by the State provision and/or works in the territory of Maharashtra. The petitioner has also prayed for an ad-interim order and seeks stay of the notice dated 25-10-2010 issued to the petitioner as well as to the other government employees regarding intimation for retirement from service, till the matter is decided. 2. Learned counsel for the petitioner fairly states that the petitioner is personally involved in the outcome of this petition, as he prayed that his retirement age should be increased from 58 to 60 years. ssp 2 APPIL(L) 2 of 2011 In our view, such type of public interest litigation is not required to be entertained in which personal interest and motive of the petitioner is involved and machinery of PIL cannot be used for who wants to derive personal benefits from it. We do not find any substance in the petition, which is accordingly dismissed. ( A.A.SAYED, J. ) ( P.B.MAJMUDAR, J. )
