3. The factual matrix of the case in OA No. 1102/2025 - Abhi Naitan & Ors. vs. Staff Selection Commission as per the counsel of the applicants is that in pursuance to the advertisement issued by the respondents for Combined Graduate Level Examination 2024 for various posts, the applicants applied for the same and appeared in the Tier-I examination wherein all the applicants qualified. Thereafter, they appeared in Tier-II examination held on 18.01.2025 Item 132 (C-4) and 20.01.2025. However, the final result dated 12-13/03/2025 did not include the applicants. According to the counsel many candidates who secured lesser raw marks than the applicants figured in the result list however, the applicants' name did not figure therein which is beyond their imagination as even if the candidates who secured lesser marks get some more marks after normalisation, they cannot get more than 05 marks whereas the result showed that they got 20 to 62 marks more which proves arbitrariness while preparing the final merit list. Moreover, the respondents are showing haste in recruiting the successful candidates as can be seen from the memorandum dated 13.03.2025 issued by the Ministry of Finance requiring successful candidates to submit their preference for Region/State for the post of Inspector of Income Tax in CBDT wherein the last date of submission was 17.03.2025. Aggrieved, the applicants preferred representations to the competent authority on 15.03.2025. Subsequently, on 18.03.2025 a new answer key was issued whereby 09 questions of exam held on 18.01.2025 and 10 questions of exam held on 20.01.2025 were declared to be invalid. Being aggrieved, the applicants are before this Tribunal.
