Dr. Deepa K.G vs Cochin University Of Science And ... on 25 March, 2025

10. Sri.George Poonthottam, learned Senior counsel, instructed by Sri.Navaneeth Krishna, learned counsel for the 6 th respondent, submits that the statements of the University, the Government of India and the UGC unequivocally state that the declaration of equivalence by the AIU was valid and acceptable, the only challenge raised in the writ petition on the acceptability of the Ph.D. of the 6th respondent has to necessarily fail. It is also his argument, based on the judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Praveen Kumar C.P. v. Kerala Public Service Commission and Ors. reported in 2021 SCC OnLine SC 612, that the declaration of equivalence is only a declaration of the existing fact and not any fresh declaration. Once it is declared that the Ph.D. degree awarded to the 6th respondent is equivalent, it must be taken that the degree is equivalent from the date when the degree was obtained and therefore, the argument that the same was produced after the cut-off date is not relevant. It is also argued that, in any event, the university concerned which conducted the selection themselves 2025:KER:24922 WP(C).NO.3420/2018 14 had issued an equivalency certificate and therefore, there cannot be any further doubt on the question of equivalence of qualification and no interference is warranted either on facts or on law. It is also pointed out that the 6 th respondent has joined and has been working since 2017 and that the writ petitioner has also obtained permanent employment at the University of Kerala.

The Kerala Public Service Commission vs Jitha T,D/O Thankavelu R on 18 July, 2025

19. However, this may not be the case where the notification clearly stipulates a specific qualification or its equivalent. In such situations, a subsequent declaration of equivalency by the Government will not disentitle a candidate who applied for the post based on an equivalent qualification, if that qualification was declared as equivalent by the Government after the notification. This is for the simple reason that the notification itself is clear and certain in allowing consideration of equivalent qualifications. (see the judgment of the Apex Court in Praveen Kumar C. P. v. Kerala Public Service Commission [2021 KHC 7062] and the judgment of this Court in Sanjai A. T. v. State of Kerala [ 2024 KHC 1068]) The subsequent declaration of equivalency can be considered only as an affirmation of the necessary qualification possessed by the candidate at the relevant time prescribed in the notification. Though this is not an issue here, it is discussed only to have clarity on the law for future selection. The process of declaring equivalency and the determination of sufficiency of a higher qualification differ significantly, particularly in regard to timing and stage. A declaration of equivalency can be made at any point in time, as it involves a O.P. (KAT) Nos. 81/2024 & Con. Cases; 359/2024 & Con. Cases; 140/2023 & Con. Cases; & W.A.No.1614/2022
