JUDGMENT 1. This writ petition has been filed by the petitioner seeking rescheduling and re-conducting of the Physical Efficiency Test (PET) of the petitioner. 2. It is inter alia indicated in the writ petition that after clearing the written examination, the petitioner was called for PET on 12.9.2018, wherein, the petitioner participated, however, was failed on account of not completing the requisite run of 5 km within the stipulated time. 3. It is claimed that there were many irregularities in the PET conducted, wherein, the ground was not having appropriate turf, male and female candidates were made to run together who had different time to complete the 5 km run, which resulted in the petitioner not being able to complete the said run within stipulated time and, therefore, the respondents be directed to reschedule / re-conduct the PET of the petitioner. 4. A perusal of the record indicates that after the run was held on 12.9.2018, the petitioner did not raise any issue and after about four months on 7.1.2019, a representation claims to have been filed by the petitioner raising his grievance as noticed hereinbefore and the writ petition has been filed before the Court on 9.1.2019. 5. The above facts clearly reflects that filing of the present writ petition is merely an afterthought, inasmuch as, no dispute pertaining to the conditions of the ground as well as the run, was raised at the relevant time and the representation which is filed as Annex.7 also appears to have been prepared only with a view to file the present writ petition as the same is dated 7.1.2019 and the present petition has been filed on 9.1.2019, without even waiting for the representation to be delivered to the authority because the same has been sent by registered post on 7.1.2019. 6. In view of the above fact situation and the fact the petitioner has sought to question the condition of the ground and the run after a passage of over four months without any explanation for the said delay, no case for interference is made out. There is no substance in the writ petition, the same is, therefore, dismissed.
