The relief claimed in this application is that the applicant be permitted to appear in the examination which is scheduled to be held from 21.8.2011 onwards, under police escort. Learned APP in all fairness, submits that the State has no difficulty in acceding to the request of the applicant as even in the past, the applicant was permitted to 2 APPA1043.11.sxw appear in the examination under police escort but that facility was granted as per the rules and on payment of usual expenses in that behalf.
