This extension of time was candidates did not furnish these two hard copy with documents reached granted to candidates whose application in covering all disciplines and 18 the Commission bythe cutoff date 23.06.2023 copy with documents have been posts. No candidate whose application in hard Court with a grievance that their received by 23.06.2023 has approached this despite all mandatory applications have not been subjected to scrutiny pointed out that about 62 such documents supplied in hard copy. It is also the cutoff date. These applications in hard copies were received after applicants were applications were, therefore, not subjected to scrutiny as such petitioner that candidates from held to be ineligible. The apprehension of the appearing from the State outside States have been ousted to favour candidates from various States of Tripura is also unfounded since about 66 applicants to submit their including Jammu & Kashmir and Karnataka had been able been applications within the cutoff date of 2.3.06.2023.

hard copy 8 It is not the case of the petitioner that applications in date of 23.06.2023 have been with documents received after the cutoff allowed to participate in the entertained by the TPSC and candidates have been upon Annexure-4, recruitment exercise. Petitioner's grievance hinges which the Commission Corrigendum/ Notification dated 21.06.2023, by documents, i.e. attempt certificate extended the time limit for furnishing two shortfall in certificate which were found to be in and up-to-date registration 30.06.2023 (5.30 p.m.) in hard copies. some of the applications received by through the counter affidavit sought to The Commission has in their averments submit these two documents only as they justify the extension of time limit to API score and as such, mandatory in were necessary for computation of the respondents-TPSC that the process of scrutiny of nature. lt is the stand of the cutoff date, i.e. 23.06.2023 is not documents received in hard copy before the respondents-TPSC appears to have legally impermissible. This plea of the has to undertake scrutiny of several sound basis as the recruiting body respect of any such recruitment documents and applications received in process.

10. It is also evident from the counter affidavit of the respondents that it is not only the petitioner whose application in hard copy along with documents reached after the cutoff date of 23.06.2023 but there were 62 such applicants whose applications reached after the cutoff date 23.06.2023 and all Commission of them were treated as ineligible. As such, on the one hand, the cannot be faulted for treating applications received after 23.06.2023 as ineligible as no extension of time for submitting of hard copies of application with documents beyond 23.06.2023 was granted nor any application received in hard copy after 23.06.2023 were entertained by the Commission for scrutiny and interview. Therefore, on the first plank, since the petitioner's application had reached on 28.06.2023, the decision of the recruiting body to treat that application as ineligible cannot be found fault with. It, therefore, also appeals to the Court that extension of time on 21.06.2023 for submitting two the certificates which were mandatory for computation of API score to all recruitment candidates covering 9 disciplines and 18 posts in total in the said Petitioner has also exercise was not actuated by malice to favour few persons.
