Since it is a limited issue which has been raised by the petitioner that she has been at the verge of retirement and necessary circular of the State Government does provide for grant of exemption from passing of Hindi Noting and Drafting Examination specially in the background that she has failed to pass the said examination despite repeated attempts and has already crossed the age of fifty years. This writ application was filed because the Superintendent of I.D. Hospital, Agamkuan, Patna has not taken any decision on the application of petitioner dated 2.9.2010. This writ application is disposed of with a direction upon respondent no.11 that taking into consideration that there are provisions for exemption if an employee has failed to pass the examination despite repeated attempts and has crossed - 2 - fifty years of age, he will consider the matter sympathetically and necessary order be passed within three months from the date of communication or production of a copy of this order. This writ application is disposed of with the above direction. RPS (Ajay Kumar Tripathi,J.)
