Calcutta High Court Grants Relief to Army Aspirant
Sourav Sarkar wanted to continue in an Army recruitment process.
He had already passed the first round.
But his name was missing from the voter list.
Because of this, he had trouble getting a domicile certificate.
The certificate was needed for the next physical examination stage.
Sarkar asked the Calcutta High Court for help.
Justice Krishna Rao directed officials to give him a temporary certificate if he met the other requirements.
This means the voter-list problem should not stop his opportunity to continue in recruitment.
