Medically unfit due to less height

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 06 February 2018 This query is : Resolved 
We 8 girls were rejected due to less height as per the medical norms of the company. Out of 8, 6 belong to finance discipline and 2 belong to mechanical discipline. There are two groups in the company's medical norms. Group A is applicable to "ALL CLASSES OF EMPLOYEES DIRECTLY
CONNECTED WITH COAL MINING (MINING, GEOLOGICAL, SURVEY, MECHANICAL,
ELECTRICAL, ELECTRONICS, OPEN CAST, PERSONNEL, MINING TRAINEES, AUTHORIZED DRIVERS AND WATCH AND WARD EMPLOYEES, ETC.)"
And group B is applicable to posts other than group A.
And on asking in the RTI about the group in which finance and mechanical falls . They replied finance comes under group A.

And as per group A norms minimum height requirement for the candidate is 159 cm. And we all are less than that. But in other batch of appointment which was after 15 days if our batch, the candidate was selected and not declared unfit though the cabdidate's height was less than 159 cm. We know the name and height of the the Candidate but we have no knowledge of what height they must have written in the medical report.

And also in batches which were before ours batch, Candidate with less height were selected.

Also no separate height is mentioned for male and female candidates. Both have same minimum height requirements.

We made an appeal to the company but there is no response on their part since 2 months.

I want to know whether we 8 can proceed for court case on the basis of info of that selected candidate.
