category is 240 marks. Learned counsel further submits that, questioning the action on the part of the Tahsildar, in not issuing the caste certificate, the petitioner was filed a writ petition in W.P.No.12633 of 2017 before this Court and the same was disposed of by this Court vide order dated 17.4.2017 and directed the Tahsildar to consider the application of the petitioner. However, the Tahsildar failed to consider the same. Accordingly, the petitioner again preferred W.P.No.26758 of 2017 before this Court seeking for the same relief. Consequently, this Court, vide order, dated 29.08.2017 in WPMP No.33214 of 2017 in WP No.26758 of 2017 directed the respondent authorities to reconsider the application of the petitioner and pass necessary orders. In pursuance of the said orders, the Tahsildar issued Caste Certificate on 27.04.2018 certifying the petitioner as belongs to BC-E category. Learned counsel further submits that, the petitioner submitted an application dated 02.01.2019 to the 2nd respondent to consider his candidature as BC-E, but he failed to do so. Learned counsel mainly contended that, though there were administrative lapses on the part of the Revenue authorities in issuing the certificate of Caste, the same resulted into non issuance of Caste certificate at the time of making an application to the recruitment notification for the post of SCTSI. On account of the same, the petitioner was treated erroneously as belongs to OC category instead of BC-E category. He submits that as the petitioner was construed as OC category in the absence of the Caste Certificate at the relevant point of time, he was denied selection under BC-E category despite he got more merit than the last selected candidate of BC-E
