In Brief
This case involved candidates for Ranker Sub-Inspector positions who claimed they were physically unfit but were compelled to participate in the physical efficiency test. The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's direction permitting re-tests, but only for candidates who had informed the Competent Authority about their ailment before or on the date of the test. Appellants meeting this condition were permitted to approach the authority with supporting documentation for re-test within one month. Those who failed to inform prior to the test were denied the re-test benefit, particularly for Category III and IV candidates."
