Case brief
AI extract
What is this about?
Orissa High Court; W.P.(C) No.5202 of 2021; Justice B. P. Routray; OPSC recruitment; Advertisement No.08/2013 (Annexure-1); corrigendum dated 21.08.2014 (Annexure-2) extending last date to 27.09.2014; eligibility based on graduation qualification acquired before extended cut-off; inclusion of private Opposite Parties 3 to 7 in merit list; exclusion of Petitioners from merit list; writ petition dismissed on 05.12.2024.
What did the court decide?
Private Opposite Parties 3 to 7 had acquired the graduation qualification before the extended last date of application (27.09.2014, fixed by corrigendum dated 21.08.2014 under Annexure-2), making them eligible for the posts; the plea of their ineligibility therefore fails. ¶20
