Hon'ble Mrs. Sunita Agarwal,J.
Submission is that the claim of the petitioner for regular appointment to the post of Collection Amin has not been considered till date though vacancies exist in the prescribed quota. The petitioner is about to complete the age of 45 years in the month of July, 2018 and as such his claim may frustrate thereafter, in view of the requirement of the rules.
Submission is that a direction may be issued to the competent authority to hold a meeting of the Selection Committee to fill up the quota as prescribed under the Uttar Pradesh Collection Amin's Service Rules, 1974 as amended by the Uttar Pradesh Collection Amin's Service (Seventh Amendment) Rules, 2015, in the forthcoming month of June, 2018.
Submission is that as per the seniority list, in view of the existing vacancy, the petitioner falls within the zone of consideration.
Considering the said submissions, it is relevant to note that vide judgment and order dated 28.5.2018 passed in Writ-A No. - 54923 of 2017 (Devki Nandan And 17 Others vs. State Of U.P. And 3 Others) alongwith the connected writ petitions, this Court has directed the State Government to grant relaxation under the U.P. Public Service Commission (Relaxation of Age Limit) Relaxation Rules, 1992 to those Seasonal Collection Amins and Seasonal Collection Peons who have crossed the age of 45 years.
While issuing such directions, this Court has restrained the district authorities from undertaking any exercise for selection.
In view of the said direction contained in Writ-A No.- 54923 of 2017 (Devki Nandan And 17 Others vs. State Of U.P. And 3 Others) decided on 28.5.2018, this Court is of the view that no positive direction can be issued in the matter of the petitioner, at this stage.
However, after a decision is taken by the Governor, the claim of the petitioner can be considered in the light of the same.
With the above observations, the writ petition is disposed of. Order Date :- 29.5.2018 Brijesh
