C.W.P No. 19046 of 1997 This fact is also admitted by the respondents in the written statement that the respondent No. 3 was not having Specialisation of Sculpture/Applied Arts but the Principal has called for interview every candidate for fair selection.

Since the respondent No. 3 was selected way back on 05.11.1997 and almost 19 years have gone by, this Court at this stage does not want to quash the selection of respondent No. 3, who was selected way back.

In view of the above factual position, the writ petition is dismissed.
