01/02/2021
Both the counsels are agreed that the issue involved in the
present writ petition stands finally adjudicated by this Court vide
its order dated 24.02.2020 which has been affirmed by the
Division Bench and the Supreme Court also.
This Court in the case of Sanjay Meena had followed the
judgment passed in Brijesh Kumar Meena Vs. The State of
Rajasthan and observed that the chest measurement of 10 CM is
extremely unlikely. The Medical Officer has conducted the chest
measurement of the petitioner and found to be 85 CM and inflate
is 90 CM which is affirmed to be in consonance with the
requirement under the Rajasthan Police Subordinate Services
Rule, 1989. Earlier when the petitioner appeared before the
(2 of 2) [CW-1923/2019]
concerned recruiting physical examination, the chest
measurement was mentioned as deflate 77.5 CM and inflate chest
measurement 87.7 CM. Thus, earlier chest measurement was
found to be extremely unlikely and as there cannot be any inflate
of 10 CM. Having found the said measurement has incorrect, this
court directed the petitioner's chest measurement to be re-
examined by the Medical Board which has now given the result as
noticed above.
Keeping in view the judgment passed by this Court in Sanjay
Meena Vs. State of Rajasthan & Ors., SBCWP No.27021/2018
decided on 24.02.2020 and the judgment passed by the Division
Bench in D.B. Special Appeal (Writ) No.514/2020 State of
Rajasthan & Ors. Vs. Sanjay Meena decided on 08.09.2020, this
Court is of the view, this writ petition deserves to be allowed and
the same is accordingly allowed.
Accordingly, the petitioner would be entitled for consideration
of appointment as per his merit. The exercise shall be conducted
within a period of one month by the State. If petitioner is found
suitable, appointment shall be offered to him. If he is given
appointment, his merit shall be notionally fixed. He would be sent
for further training and shall be treated from the same batch of
selected Constable for all intents and purposes. Actual benefit
shall be made available to him from the date of joining and he will
also undertake the probation period. It is made clear that if the
petitioner has also undergone the physical examination then he
will not be asked to again appear for physical examination.
