Such service would not entail the kind of physical and mental strain that hospital work would demand yet would still ensure meaningful public service to the community. 6. The petitioner shall coordinate with the management of the said institution to carry out this responsibility in a dignified and consistent manner. 7. Compliance report of the said service shall be filed before this Court through affidavit at periodic intervals. 8. The application stands accordingly disposed of.
