Howsoever, the petitioners were unable to carry out the procedural formalities as due to bona fide mistake and on account of limited resources being available and fact that the petitioners [2025:RJ-JP:12629] (3 of 3) [CW-3451/2025] belong to rural background, they were unable to fill the online application. However, as soon as the said requisite was brought to the notice of the petitioners, they have filed a representation dated 20.11.2024 before the competent authority, howsoever, till date no heed is paid qua the same. 4. On directions of the Court, Ms. Nidhi Khandelwal has marked her presence for the respondent No.1. Qua respondents No.2 to 5, notices are not yet served. 5. Howsoever, it is noted that since the representations filed by the petitioners are not adjudicated till date, the present petition is at a premature stage for consideration and judicial intervention. 6. Considering the foregoing facts and circumstances of the present matter, this Court directs the respondent No.3 to adjudicate the representations filed by the petitioners (Annexure- 3) within a period of 30 days, strictly in accordance with law, taking a sympathetic view. 7.
