J U D G M E N T Apparently, the petitioner has an after thought with regard to his Voluntary Retirement Scheme. It is seen from the counter affidavit that the application submitted by the petitioner was accepted and the petitioner has received the compensation also, as can be seen from Ext.R1(a) series of application, receipt and communication. It is now settled law that once the V.R.S. is accepted, there is no scope for reconsideration and reinstatement. (See the decision in A.K.Bindal and another v. Union of India and others (2003)5 SCC 163). The writ petition is hence dismissed.
