Manish Gupta vs Uti Infrastructure Technology And ... on 5 September, 2022

Efforts have been made to limit the scope of arbitrariness in the former by narrowing down the proportion as various factors are likely to creep in, but the same standard cannot be applied for higher selections and this is clearly brought out in Lila Dhar case [Lila Dhar v. State of Rajasthan, (1981) 4 SCC 159 : 1981 SCC (L&S) 588] . It is, therefore, clear that this Court was also of the view that no hard and fast rule can be laid down in these matters because much would depend on the level of the post and the nature of the performance expected from the incumbent. In that case the method of evaluation was based 50 per cent on ACRs and 50 per cent on interviews and this Court upheld the said method notwithstanding the fact that the weightage for interview performance was as high as 50 per cent. We are, therefore, of the view that the contention that because in the instant case the weightage for the viva voce test is 40 per cent, it is per se excessive and hence arbitrary, cannot be accepted.‖

Bhuvan Goel vs Punjab And Haryana High Court And ... on 9 January, 2025

81. The above opinion in Lila Dhar [Lila Dhar v. State of Rajasthan, (1981) 4 SCC 159 : 1981 SCC (L&S) 588] makes it clear that the ratio in Ajay Hasia [Ajay Hasia v. Khalid Mujib Sehravardi, (1981) 1 SCC 722 : 1981 SCC (L&S) 258] , in the context of college admission, may not have much bearing on recruitment for judicial vacancies where oral interviews play an important role to test the personality and calibre of the aspirant to judicial posts."

Varia Jayeshkumar Bilindrabhai vs State Of Gujarat on 4 March, 2020

6.1 In Lila Dhar v. State of Rajasthan [(1981) 4 SCC 159] it was explained that the provision of marks for the interview cannot be same in respect of the admission to the colleges and for the purpose of entry in the public service. The Apex Court viewed the distinction in the following words, "... In the case of admission to a college, for instance, where the candidate's personally is yet to develop and it is too early to identify the personal qualities for which greater importance may have to be attached in later life, greater weight has per force to be given to performance in the written examination. The importance to be attached to the interview-test must be minimal.

Shiv Nath Singh vs State on 30 April, 2024

It was further held that the interview test in Lila Dhar case was conducted by a body consisting of a Judge of the High Court, the Chairman and a Member of the Punjab Service Commission and a special invitee expert. Thus there could be no legitimate grievance or hint of arbitrariness against such body. Another factor worthy of consideration in that case was that the candidates expected to offer themselves for selection were not raw graduates fresh out of college but were persons who had already received a certain amount of professional training. The source material was such that some weightage was to be given to the interview test and in their Lordship's view 25 per cent of the total marks was not an exaggerated weightage.

Surender Singh vs Navodya Vidyalaya Sanghathan on 1 September, 2023

"23. This Court speaking through Chinnappa Reddy, J. pointed out in Lila Dhar v. State of Rajasthan that the object of any process of selection for entry into public service is to secure the best and the most suitable person for the job, avoiding patronage and favouritism. Selection based on merit, tested impartially and objectively, is the essential foundation of any useful and efficient public service. So open competitive examination has come to be accepted almost universally as the gateway to public services. But the question is how should the competitive examination be devised? The competitive examination may be based exclusively on written examination or it may be based exclusively on oral interview or it may be a mixture of both. It is entirely for the Government to decide what kind of competitive examination would be appropriate in a given case.................."

Dr. Irfan Rasool Gadda And Ors. vs State Of J And K And Ors. on 27 May, 2005

"The second ground of attack must fail for the same reason as the first ground of attack. The Rules themselves do not provide for the allocation of marks under different heads at the interview test. The criterion for the interview-test has been laid down by the Rules. It is for the interviewing body to take general decision whether to allocate marks under different heads or to award marks in a single lot. The award of marks under different heads may lead to a distorted picture of the candidate on occasion. On the other hand the totality of the impression created by the candidates on the interviewing body may give a more accurate picture of the candidate's personality. It is for the interviewing body to choose the appropriate method of marking at the selection to each service. There cannot be any magic formula in these matters and courts cannot sit in judgment over the methods of marking employed by interviewing bodies unless, as we said, it is proven or obvious that the method of marking was chosen with oblique motive."

Raghav Sanjay Gupta vs Indian Institute Of Management ... on 1 October, 2020

"On a careful consideration of the matter, we are persuaded to the view that the prescription of minimum qualifying marks of 60 (33 per cent) out of the maximum marks of 180 set apart for the viva voce examination does not, by itself, Page 54 of 75 Downloaded on : Fri Oct 02 03:23:23 IST 2020 C/LPA/388/2020 CAV JUDGMENT incur any constitutional infirmity. The principles laid down in the cases of Ajay Hasia, Lila Dhar, Ashok Kumar Yadav, do not militate against or render impermissible such a prescription. There is nothing unreasonable or arbitrary in the stipulation that officers to be selected for higher services and who are, with the passage of time, expected to man increasingly responsible positions in the core services such as the Administrative Services and the Police Services should be men endowed with personality traits conducive to the levels of performance expected in such services. There are features that distinguish, for instance, Accounts Service from the Police Service -- a distinction that draws upon and is accentuated by the personal qualities of the officer. Academic excellence is one thing. Ability to deal with the public with tact and imagination is another. Both are necessary for an officer. The dose that is demanded may vary according to the nature of the service. Administrative and Police Services constitute the cutting edge of the administrative machinery and the requirement of higher traits of personality is not an unreasonable expectation."
