Accordingly, all the authorities in the State of Haryana, impleaded as party respondents in majority of writ petitions, would comply the direction aforesaid in consonance to the circular dated 8.4.1994.
2.On receipt of verification from the prescribed authority of the State of Haryana, competent authority in the State of Rajasthan would appropriately issue OBC certificate indicating whether the candidate is falling in the creamy layer or not. The said certificate would be issued only if the petitioner was an OBC candidate in the State of Haryana and is falling in the same category in the State of Rajasthan and not otherwise. The direction aforesaid would resolve the grievance in regard to issuance of OBC certificate. The compliance of this order would be made by the parties in the State of Rajasthan as well as State of Haryana in consonance to the circular issued by the Government of India dated 8.4.1994.
