What did the court decide?
Interim protection granted at admission stage: notice issued returnable on 18.12.2025; until the returnable date, Respondent Nos. 3 and 4 restrained from taking coercive action against the petitioners solely because their caste claim stands invalidated, subject to the petitioners furnishing within 15 days an undertaking not to claim service benefits (promotion, increment, pay fixation, confirmation etc.) pending the petition. ¶16
