CWP(T) No. 9198/2008 25.11.2009 Present: Mr. Ajay Sharma, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. R.K. Sharma, Senior Additional Advocate General with Mr. P.K. Sharma, Additional A.G. for the respondents. The respondent-State decided to fill up 242 posts of Supervisors. The candidature of the petitioner was also considered. She was not found suitable. Mr. Ajay Sharma has strenuously argued that imposition of five years experience, as eligibility for consideration to the post of Supervisor, is illegal and arbitrary. We see no merit in this contention. It is for the State to prescribe eligibility and qualification to a particular post. Rather, it is in larger public interest that the candidates, who have worked for five years as Anganwadi Worker are appointed as Supervisor. Since the petitioner did not possess the five years experience as prescribed under the Recruitment and Promotion Rules, her candidature could not be considered. Accordingly, there is no merit in the petition and the same is dismissed. (R.B. Misra), Acting Chief Justice (Rajiv Sharma), Judge. November 25, 2009 *awasthi*
