3.One of the requirements for selection to the Tamil Nadu Uniformed Services Recruitment Board, 2019 is that the Petitioner should clock 38 seconds for 200 meters running. Since the Petitioner herein had clocked 39.53 seconds, she has not met with the standards set-forth for the recruitment and therefore, the prayer sought for by the Petitioner herein cannot be granted. 4.The learned counsel for the Petitioner would submit that she intends to have a view of CCTV footage recorded during the selection process. The Petitioner is always entitled to make such a claim through the provisions of the Right to Information Act and after obtaining such CCTV footage, if the Petitioner is of the view that she has qualified herself in the 200 meters running, liberty is granted to her to file a fresh Writ Petition. 5.With the above observations, the Writ Petition stands disposed of. No costs.
