VIJAY PRATAP YADAV AND ORS vs STATE OF UTTAR PRADESH AND ORS

Bench: 2 — Uday Umesh Lalit, Ajay Rastogi

In Brief

The petitioners challenged a selection process conducted for government positions under a 2012 notification, arguing that the earlier selection should have been completed rather than replaced with a fresh process. They also claimed 95 candidates were wrongly selected despite not meeting the prescribed minimum marks (60% for reserved, 70% for general category). The Supreme Court dismissed the review petition, finding no merit in the substantive submissions and declining permission from non-parties to the original litigation. The Court noted the matter had been considered thrice already and found no justification for further interference.
