The learned Counsel appearing for the petitioner, would submit that though the petitioner is in possession of relevant documents and also having requisite qualification, still, her request for appointment on destitute widow category, has not been considered and hence, she is constrained to approach this Court and prays for appropriate orders. https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.
