W.P(MD)No.14084 of 2020 3.Learned Additional Advocate General appearing for the respondent, on instructions, submitted that pursuant to the order of this Court, the petitioner was permitted to attend the physical efficiency test conducted on 10.10.2020. Even then, the petitioner has not secured the required cut-off marks. The petitioner has secured 47.5 marks in the written test and physical efficiency test, whereas, the last selected candidate has secured 48.5 marks. Therefore, the petitioner was not selected for the subsequent phase of selection for the post of Sub-Inspector of Police. 4.The aforesaid submission made by the learned Additional Advocate General stands recorded.

Since the prayer in the writ petition itself is for permitting the petitioner to participate in the physical efficiency test, which has already been granted and availed by the petitioner, no further order is required to be passed in this writ petition. Accordingly, the same is closed. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petitions stand closed.

In view of the present lock down owing to COVID-19 pandemic, a web copy of the order may be utilized for official purposes, but, ensuring that the copy of the order that is presented is the correct copy, shall be the responsibility of the advocate/litigant concerned.
