Manoj Sai   15 November 2022

filing application on expired statue

It is to submit that Sri P.Manoj Sai had secured a Bronze Medal in the 5 th Asian Beach Games-2016 held at Danang,Vietnam from 24.09.2016 to 03.10.2016, Ask per GO.No .84 he is eligible for SI of Police job.

But the government is saying that the GO was expired in 2017 but even though the Go was expired by 2017 his achievement was within the time frame of the above mentioned G.O.Ms.No.84.


In this circumstances how can we proceed further in case and suggest me some court cases for reference..

In this situation, you can argue that Sri P. Manoj Sai's achievement was within the time frame specified in G.O.Ms.No.84, even though the GO expired in 2017. Here are some steps you can take:

1. **File a Representation**: Submit a formal representation to the concerned authorities, highlighting that the achievement was within the valid period of the GO and requesting reconsideration of the eligibility for the SI of Police job.

2. **Legal Action**: If the representation is not successful, consider filing a writ petition in the High Court, seeking a directive to the government to honor the eligibility criteria as per the GO in effect at the time of the achievement.

3. **Cite Relevant Cases**: Refer to similar cases where courts have ruled in favor of applicants based on achievements within the valid period of a GO, even if the GO expired later. For example, in the case of [Si Gd Pradeep vs Union Of India & Ors.](https://indiankanoon.org/doc/111876406/), the court considered the eligibility criteria based on the time of achievement.

Consulting a legal expert for personalized advice and assistance in filing the representation or petition is highly recommended.
