The Court cannot be indulgent to the petitioners as there may be many other candidates whose applications might have been received after the cut-off date as against more than 1200 applications received within time. Thus, the application forms of the petitioners cannot be directed to be accepted on account of postal delay. The petitioners can seek their remedy against the postal department for delay but the High Court cannot be directed to accept the application forms received after the cut-off date.
