MOHAN KUMAR HALDER Vs. STATE OF WEST BENGAL

JUDGEMENT

(1.) This writ petition has been filed assailing the judgment and order dated 8th February, 2010 passed by the learned West Bengal Administrative Tribunal in Case No. O.A. 754 of 2009 whereby and whereunder the said learned Tribunal dismissed the application filed by the petitioner herein on merits.

(2.) Going through the records, we find that the petitioner herein was selected for appointment to the post of Excise Constable in the year 1995 but ultimately the said petitioner was not appointed to the post due to the pendency of a criminal case against the said petitioner.

(3.) The learned Tribunal by the order dated 15th June, 2006 finally disposed of the said earlier application by directing the authority concerned to consider the case of the petitioner. THE concerned authority, namely, the Superintendent of Excise, Nadia thereafter, passed an order on 7th January, 2009 rejecting the prayer of the petitioner for appointment on the ground that the said petitioner had crossed the age bar. Challenging the aforesaid decision, the petitioner filed another application before the learned Tribunal which was disposed of by the impugned judgment and order dated 8th February, 2010.
