K.Kumaran vs The Government Of Tamil Nadu on 6 March, 2012
Bicitra Bora vs. State of Assam {2007 (4) GLT 147}
An advertisement was issued in March 1999, for filling up the post of Assistant Inspector of Excise in Grade III. The petitioners submitted their applications and they did not receive any communication from the respondents. However, they came to know that respondents propose to appoint persons without following the procedure. W.P. filed challenging the proposed appointment. Guwahati High Court directed the respondents to appoint persons as per the Recruitment Rules. In May 2005, the respondents requested the Employment Exchange to forward a panel of 100 candidates with a clarification that the eligible candidates who applied in 1999 need not apply afresh. Hence, the name of the petitioners were not sponsored. However, they did not receive any admit cards for the written examination. Their representations were dismissed on the ground that the respondents did not receive their applications and that appointments have already been made.
