It was their contention that by not extending the age of superannuation from 60 to 62 years the Government of U.P. is subjecting its differently abled government employees to hostile discrimination and in terms of the provisions contained in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/kWS6y1Bc\">Rights of Persons with Disabilities Act, 2016<\/a> the differently abled persons in the State of U.P. are entitled to be given the same treatment.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3%;\">Assistant Solicitor General of India appearing for the Union of India and State Counsel opposing this PIL have unanimously submitted that the prayer made in this PIL essentially pertains to service matter and as per the settled position of law, no PIL can be entertained in relation to service-related matters and accordingly the writ petition is liable to be dismissed .<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3%;\">The Court relied on <i>Girjesh Shrivastava<\/i> v. <i>State of Madhya Pradesh<\/i>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/XEaWiSJE\">(2010) 10 SCC 707<\/a>, <i>Duryodhan Sahoo (Dr.)<\/i> v. <i>Jitendra Kumar Mishra<\/i>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/DocumentLink\/iEZ1819E\">(1998) 7 SCC 273<\/a>, <i>B.

However, such non-discrimination which runs across the Act, 2016 has to be read in the context. The Act 2016 was framed to make a law prohibiting all kinds of discrimination of differently abled persons in the society and also for ensuring their effective participation and inclusion in the society as also for creating an environment where there will be respect for the difference such differently abled persons bear and also to create equality of opportunity etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3%;\">The PIL was dismissed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-indent: 18pt; margin-bottom: 3;\">[<span style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #632423;\">Ramkali Samajik Utthan Evan Jan Kalyan Samiti v.
