For the Petitioner/s :

Mr.Mukesh Kumar No-1 For the Respondent/s :

Mr.Madhaw Prasad Yadaw ( GP-23 ) Mr. Arvind Kumar, A.C. to G.P.-23 For the U.O.I. : Mr. S.D. Sanjay, A.S.G. ====================================================== CORAM: HONOURABLE MR. JUSTICE MOHIT KUMAR SHAH ORAL ORDER 08-05-2019 The short prayer of the petitioners in the present case is to extend the time period for submitting the training certificate inasmuch as it has been stipulated by the Government of India that the services of the petitioners shall stand terminated with effect from 31.03.2019 if the training certificate are not submitted by the said date.

The learned counsel for the petitioners has submitted, referring to a gazette notification dated 01.01.2019, that in the

Patna High Court CWJC No.8661 of 2019(3) dt.08-05-2019 2/2 case of the State of Tripura, the time period for submitting the requisite training certificate has been extended by the Government of India, hence similar treatment be granted to the petitioners herein inasmuch as the colleges from where the petitioners are pursuing the training course are not holding the examination within time, hence there is no fault on the part of the petitioners.

Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, I deem it fit and proper to dispose off the present writ petition with liberty to the petitioners to approach the respondent no. 2 by filing appropriate representation within a period of three weeks from today, whereupon the respondent no. 2 shall consider the case of the petitioners sympathetically in light of the aforesaid notification dated 04.01.2019 and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law.

It is needless to state that in the meantime status quo existing as on today qua the petitioners herein shall be maintained till the final decision is taken by the respondent no. 2.
