JUDGMENT

The petitioner has approached this Court being aggrieved by the invalidment from the service after completing the training for commissioning in the Military Nursing Service. The petitioner submitted that for the purpose of admission as a Nursing Cadet in the college of Nursing in AFMC, Pune, she underwent training without any difficulties. It is also submitted that the detailed medical examinations were conducted at Command Hospital (Air Force), Bangalore and no adverse remarks against the petitioner. However, she was not called for the ceremony of commissioning. The petitioner was told that some medical disability was there and therefore, she is liable to be invalided out of service. The petitioner submitted that her ailment was described as Dorsal Spine Scoliosis that was revealed during chest X Ray. 2.

Aggrieved by that finding, the petitioner approached

W.P.(C) No.2123 of 2015 -2the second respondent by Ext.P4. The only request made by the petitioner before this Court is for an early disposal of Ext.P4. The appeal appears to have been on 16.9.2013 as revealed from Ext.P4.

In view of the above, appropriate decision shall be taken in the matter, after affording an opportunity of being heard to the petitioner by the second respondent, within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. Sd/- A. MUHAMMED MUSTAQUE JUDGE Scl.
