Govt job rejection due to one eyed amblyopia(20% visual defect) for pharmacist post?

As per ESIC act , ESIC follow DoPT first medical joining rules which is framed by MOHFW , as per this document for "TECHNICAL POST" one eyed/ amblyopia candidates are unfit , which is backed by the document of cabinet secretariat O.M.No.85/11/CF-61(1), dated 28th december, 1961, that clasify the technical posts. 1) But the ESIC provide reservation on some paramedical post(which are also i believe technical) for Low Vision candidate(40% disability), but the pharmacist post is not suitable for Low vision candidate. There is flexibility on this rule . 2) And as per Revised PwD act , 2016 i think , the DGHS of MOHFW , give guide line that , " FOR MEDICAL COURSE AND PERSON LESS THAN 40% VISUAL DISABILITY , CAN GET ADMISSION" . so the goverment is allowing the degree for upto 30% visual disability candidate , but as per the said guideline of pre-medical there is 99% chance that they will reject me . And i have seen many candidates get rejected on jobs. so , what should i do ? Should i appeal to court? If yes, where should i complain, do i have to go to the SC as its a central govt job or i should file the case in assam as this is where i got posted or can i file case on kolkata high court? i have 20% disability , is there any chance of winning?

Until you have not been rejected you don't have any grievance hence you may wait for the decision of the authorities concerned for pursuing redressal machinery.

Wait and watch for decision.

Has your candidature been rejected solely on this ground. If so, you can approach the jurisdictional Bench of  the Central Administrative Tribunal.

If a general issue, you may make a represention (for the better, together with those similarly affected) and, and in case of no positive response,  could seek judicial remedy before the High Court/Supreme Court.
