ORDER

This writ petition has been filed, seeking to direct the respondent to appoint the petitioner as Village Assistant by considering the petitioner's application dated 06.10.2017. 2.The grievance of the petitioner is that although the petitioner attended the interview for appointment to the post of Village Assistant, she has not been provided with any appointment. 3.The learned Special Government Pleader appearing for the respondent submitted that the petitioner had already crossed the age limit and hence her case could not be considered. 4.Per contra, the learned Counsel appearing for the petitioner submitted that on the date of application, the petitioner was well within the age limit and so far, no one has been appointed in the said post. Hence, he prayed for consideration of the petitioner's representation dated 06.10.2017.

5.Under such circumstances, this Court, without going into the merits of the case, directs the respondent to consider the petitioner's representation dated 06.10.2017, on merits and in accordance with law and pass necessary orders, after affording opportunity of hearing to the petitioner, within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/
