A.P.Public Service Commission vs Baloji Badhavath & Ors on 8 April, 2009

25. How the Commission would judge the merit of the candidates is its function. Unless the procedure adopted by it is held to be arbitrary or against the known principles of fair play, the superior courts would not ordinarily interfere therewith. The State framed Rules in the light of the decision of the High Court in S. JafferSaheb [(1985) 2 APLJ 380] . Per se, it did not commit any illegality. The correctness of the said decision, as noticed hereinbefore, is not in question having attained finality. The matter, however, would be different if the said Rules per se are found to be violative of Article 16 of the Constitution of India. Nobody has any fundamental right to be appointed in terms of Article 16 of the Constitution of India. It merely provides for a right to be considered therefor. A procedure evolved for laying down the mode and manner for consideration of such a right can be interfered with only when it is arbitrary, discriminatory or wholly unfair."

Dr. Rakesh Kumar vs State Of Jharkhand & Ors on 4 July, 2012

30. Learned counsel for the petitioners of W.P.(S) No. 2391 of 2022 has also put reliance on the judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court rendered in the case of Rakesh Kumar Vs. The State of Jharkhand & Others (Civil Appeal No. 9217 of 2018) wherein it was observed on the basis of the advertisement dated October, 2016 that 40 percent marks was mixed as minimum qualifying marks in the preliminary examination as opposed to marks of two separate papers in that examination and appellant before the Supreme Court had got 40 percent marks in the aggregate insofar as the two papers were concerned. However, a committee of the State Government while clarifying the supposed ambiguity in the advertisement, opined with respect to "preliminary examination" mentioned in the advertisement which was that a candidate had to get 40 per cent minimum marks in each paper. Their Lordships have held that if there was any ambiguity in the advertisement, the same must fall in favour of the candidate who goes by the advertisement as it originally stood.
