The State Of Madhya Pradesh vs Pramod Kumar Jain Through Lrs Smt Mohini ... on 20 January, 2026
10. Considering the rival submissions and going through the language
of Rule 15 (3) of the Rules of 1966 and Rule 9 of the Rules of 1976 as well
as judgments of the Division Bench in the case of Radha Krishna Sharma
(supra) and Dhirendra Kumar Dubey (supra), it appears that consultation
with the State Public Service Commission (PSC) is mandatory and therefore,
if the consultation with PSC is not carried out, then it vitiates the proceeding.
