The petitioner has challenged the impugned disqualification

order/slip dated 03.08.2021 stating that the petitioner's height is only158

cms.

2. According to the petitioner, the petitioner height is 159.2 cms

and the petitioner therefore qualifies for being selected as the prescribed

height for women candidate is 159 cms.

3. Already this Court has granted relief to some of the successful

candidates by allowing them to participate in second round of physical

test along with those who should not appeared due to Covid-19. Since

the petitioner seems to have a plausible case for being appointed to the

post of Grade-II Police Constable, as a last chance, the petitioner is given

one more opportunity to appear along with those candidates.
