In Brief
This interlocutory application concerned a Supreme Court petition to defer the MPHJS (District Judge – Entry Level) examination scheduled by the U.P. High Court. The examination committee sought flexibility citing prevailing conditions making it unsuitable to conduct the test on the originally fixed date. The Supreme Court allowed the application, permitting the committee to review the situation monthly and decide when to conduct the examination. The time-schedule was extended accordingly, and the Court clarified that other High Courts could similarly seek such deferrals if warranted by circumstances."
