State of Tamil Nadu & Anr vs A. Kalaimani & Ors

Bench: 2 — <UNKNOWN>, <UNKNOWN>

In Brief

This appeal concerned a Board's decision to cancel a written examination after discovering evidence of OMR answer sheet tampering and large-scale malpractices. The appellants argued that substantial evidence supported the cancellation, and investigations had led to several arrests with more evidence emerging. The Supreme Court upheld the Board's decision, finding sufficient material evidence of systematic examination fraud and affirmed the cancellation of the examination while investigations continued.
