Mr. Soumyadeep Biswas …for the petitioner Mr. Shyamal Kumar Mukherjee Mr. Shaunak Ghosh …for the respondents

1. The petitioner participated for recruitment in CAPF. He was declared medically unfit by the Detailed Medical Examination (DME) Board. The grounds for such declaration were 1) defective distant vision in both eyes and 2) squint.

2. The petitioner had the option to apply for review of the report of DME. The Review Medical Examination (RME) Board found that the petitioner had squint in the left eye.

3. Being aggrieved by such finding of the medical boards, the petitioner got himself tested in a State Government hospital where no squint was detected. The petitioner again got himself tested in AIIMS at Kalyani, where also squint could not be detected.

4. The petitioner submits that as two of the Government hospitals could not detect squint, the medical examinations conducted by the DME Board and the RME Board are faulty and incorrect.

5. The petitioner relies on the judgment dated May
