Jasbhai Motibhai Desai vs Roshan Kumar, Haji Bashir Ahmed & Ors on 19 December, 1975

It is in this context that the submission of the University regarding the locus standi of the first respondent to file the writ petition must also be considered. The University has rightly pointed out that the original writ petition does not disclose any legal injury to the original petitioner/present first respondent, because there is no reason to come to a conclusion that he would have been selected even if all his contentions in the writ petition were accepted. The University has relied upon the decision of this Court in Jashbhai Motibhai Desai v. Roshan Kumar, Haji Bashir Ahmed & Ors. reported in [1976] 3 SCR 58 at page 71 for the purpose of pointing out that the first respondent stands more in the position of a meddlesome interloker than a person aggrieved. There is much force in this contention also.

G. Sarana vs University Of Lucknow & Ors on 28 July, 1976

The last contention of the first respondent which has been accepted by the High Court is that of bias on the part of one of the members of the Selection Committee. The so-called bias, as set out in the original petition, is that one of the experts was a member of an Organisation which brought out a magazine of which the selected candidate was the Editor while one of the members of the Selection Committee was on the Editorial Board. Both the University as well as the selected candidate have pointed out that this fact was known to the first respondent throughout. He did not, at any time, object to the composition of the Selection Committee. He objected only after the selection was over and he was not selected. This would amount to waiver of such objection on the part of the first respondent. Reliance is placed on a decision of this Court in G. Sarana v. University of Lucknow & Ors. reported in [1977] 1 SCR 64 in which this Court found that despite the fact that the appellant knew all the relevant facts, he had voluntarily appeared before the Committee and took, a chance of having a favourable recommendation from it Having done so, it was not open to him to turn round and question the constitution of the Committee.
