He appeared for the Head Surveyors Test in January, 2008 conducted by the Public Service Commission.

The respondents have filed a counter affidavit. In it, it is averred that though the petitioner has not submitted application for rechecking within the time limit, all the remaining 68 answer scripts for the Head Surveyors test were revalued later as per orders of the Hon'ble Chairman. The results of revaluation will be intimated to the candidates at the earliest. These averments are recorded and hence no further orders are necessary. wpc:193 of 2009 2 3.
