Ramadoss’ appeal to government

CHENNAI: PMK founder S. Ramadoss on Friday urged the government to raise the maximum age limit for Adi-Dravidar and ST candidates applying for civil judge posts through the Tamil Nadu Public Service Commission from 38 to 43 and for Backward and Most Backward Classes from 35 to 40.
In a statement here, he said examinations were not conducted for recruiting civil judges in the past five years and the candidates lost an opportunity to apply. Considering this and also on the basis of last year’s order relaxing the age limit for joining government service by five years, the government should increase the age limit at least for the appointment of 201 civil judges. — Special Correspondent
