14. There is a reference of order dated 16.12.2020, issued by the Primary Education Planning Department through Joint Secretary to Government, Government of Rajasthan to prescribe the criteria for securing minimum marks and the copy of order dated 16.12.2020 has been made available by counsel for Board, during course of arguments, which has been placed on record with an advance copy to counsel for petitioners and same has been taken on record with consent of counsel for both parties in the file of SBCWP No.15541/2022: Rajesh Kumar Yadav Vs. State of Rajasthan, there is reference in the order dated 16.12.2020 that in respect of criteria of minimum qualifying marks as determined by the NCTE, the Hon'ble Supreme Court, in Civil Appeal No.3545- [2023:RJ-JP:15065 ] (26 of 40) [CW-15541/2022] 3549/2016 vide judgment dated 18.10.2016 has held that power and jurisdiction to grant relaxation in minimum qualifying marks stand vested with the State Government(s). Accordingly, in the State of Rajasthan, Government has extended relaxation of 5% marks to candidates belonging to SC/ST, OBC, MBC and EWS in comparison to candidates belonging to General/Unreserved category of TSP and Non-TSP Area. Since according to NCTE guidelines, a candidate is required to secure minimum 60% marks, out of 150 marks (that comes 90 marks), a reserve category candidate is required to secure minimum 55% marks (that comes 82.5 marks out of 150 marks), some more relaxation is provided to widow, divorce women, ex-servicemen and specially abled persons as also persons of Saharia Tribe as stipulated hereinabove in the advertisement. Thus, with this background, it stands amply clear that in the REET- 2022, a candidate belonging to reserve category of SC/ST, OBC, MBC and EWS is required to score minimum 55% marks i.e. 82.5 marks out of 150 marks and on securing 82.5 marks, he/she would be issued REET pass certificate.
