Advocate Vinod Kotwal appearing for the petitioners prayed before the Court for issuance a direction to the respondents to issue a corrigendum prescribing that lower age limit of 21 years on the last date of receipt of application forms which is February 16, 2009. Upon this Vacation Judge issued notice to respondents to filling objections.

Petitioners have completed age of 21 years but subsequent to the prescribed date January 1, 2008 as such they are not in a position to compete in the selection process despite their qualifications. Feeling aggrieved challenged the impugned notification on the ground that petitioners No 1 to 6 have attained the age of 21 years at the time of issuance of impugned notification and all are holding Bachelor Degree.
