CORAM : A. V. NIRGUDE & V. K. JADHAV, JJ. DATE : 19TH JANUARY, 2015
ORAL JUDGMENT : [PER A. V. NIRGUDE, J.]
The petitioners sought employment pursuant to the
advertisement dated 17th October, 2012, issued by respondent No. 2 – Bank.
Though they apparently fulfilled the eligibility criteria mentioned in the advertisement for the candidates who had already worked in any of the Branches of the Bank, they were not selected. Therefore they felt aggrieved
and filed the present petitions. It is their case that persons having no experience were selected. They also alleged that the Bank did not declare result of selection process.
