This writ petition has been filed by the petitioner, challenging the order of rejection, dated 18.04.2012, passed by the second respondent, for selection to the post of Grade-II Police Constable, on medical grounds.

2. Today, when the matter came up for hearing, the learned Government Advocate submitted that in the recruitment process conducted by the Tamil Nadu Uniformed Services, the petitioner has participated, however, as he was not selected to the post of Grade-II Police Constable.
