Sunil Kumar Yadav and Others vs State of Uttar Pradesh and Others

Bench: 2 — <UNKNOWN>, <UNKNOWN>

In Brief

The Supreme Court dismissed a review petition filed by candidates challenging a recruitment process for vacant positions in Uttar Pradesh. The petitioners contended that 95 candidates who failed to meet the prescribed minimum criteria (60% for reserved category, 70% for unreserved category) had been wrongly selected. While the Court granted permission to file the review petition and condoned the delay, it found no merit in the substantive grounds raised and declined to interfere with its previous order. The petition was accordingly dismissed.
