In Brief
The Supreme Court dismissed appeals by Rajasthan Public Service Commission challenging the High Court's direction to consider respondent candidates for recruitment. The Court held that once candidates become duly qualified, the Commission has a legal duty to consider them and make appropriate recommendations. The Court clarified that the Commission's role is limited to conducting recruitment as requested by the appointing authority; it is not responsible for accommodation decisions. The State Government bears ultimate responsibility for appointments and cannot shift this burden to the Public Service Commission. The appeals lacked merit and were dismissed accordingly.
