S.B. CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO. 5503/2008. (HARI DUTT VS. JVVN LTD. & OTEHRS) DATE OF ORDER : 14.08.2008. HON'BLE MR. GOVIND MATHUR, J. Mr. Shambhoo Singh for the petitioner. Mr. Ravi Bhansali for the respondents. The Jodhpur Vidhyut Vitran Nigam Ltd. under the advertisement Annexure 1 invited applications from eligible desirous candidates to be considered for appointment as Technical Helper against the existing 1188 vacancies. As per the advertisement, the maximum age prescribed for consideration for appointment is of 28 years. The petitioner is claiming a relaxation in age on the count that he worked as an apprentice with Jodhpur Vidhyut Vitran Nigam Ltd. from 10.01.2002 to 09.01.2003 and that period is required to be added while examining maximum age limit for the purpose of appointment. I do not find any substance in the arguments advanced. The age of 28 years, as a matter of fact, is prescribed under the Rajasthan State Electricity Board Technical Workman Service Regulations, 1975 and a power of relaxation is available, but in the instant matter, even by extending the maximum age limit for the term the petitioner worked as apprentice, he remains age barred being born on 27.09.1978. The petition for writ, therefore, is having no merit, hence dismissed. (GOVIND MATHUR)J. Anil/
