    The court disposed of the appeal as infructuous after the Supreme Court settled the identical issue in a prior decision (Atul Kumar Verma case, 13.04.2026) regarding height rounding for recruitment candidates measured at 169.5 cm and above to 170 cm. Since none of the writ petitioners measured below 169.5 cm, nothing survived for adjudication in the present appeal.
