HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE INDERJEET SINGH
Order
26/08/2021
Counsel for the petitioners submits that the issue involved in these writ petitions has been considered and decided by the Division Bench of this Court at Principal Seat, Jodhpur in the matter of Shravan Kumar Choudhary Vs. The State of Rajasthan & Ors. (D.B. Spl. Appl. Writ No. 154/2019, decided on 22.05.2019) where-in it has been held as under;
“1. The appellant is aggrieved by the dismissal of his writ petition. He had complained of arbitrariness in the selection process, i.e. - that the track conditions while conducting the Physical Efficiency Test (PET) were poor inasmuch as the track on which he was made to run was water logged and unfit. The appellant had relied upon the learned Single Judge’s ruling in Revant Ram Meghwal & Ors. vs. State of Rajasthan & Ors. [S.B. Civil Writ Petition No.13731/2018, decided on 27.11.2018].
(51 of 55)
[CW-24701/2018]
was also submitted that the mere circumstance that others could complete their run successfully and qualify did not preclude the appellant from challenging the procedure as unfair, which it was, in the facts of this case.
“22. It is pertinent to mention hereunder that the Hon’ble Supreme Court had dealt with the aforesaid question in the matter reported in Rajesh Kumar Gupta vs. State of U.P.; (2005) 5 SCC 172 wherein it has been held that where the criteria of preparation of merit was subsequently changed after holding of the examination, no candidate had any occasion to protest as such the plea of promissory estoppel would not apply where the candidates who had applied but not selected had challenged the said selection in the candidates who had applied but not selected had challenged the said selection in the writ petitions, as nothing was established to show that they had altered
(52 of 55)
[CW-24701/2018]
their position to their detriment by applying pursuant to the advertisement. 23. Therefore, submissions advanced by the learned Counsel for the contesting respondents on the strength of the decision rendered in Ranjit Kumar Singh v. State of U.P. (in Writ Petition No. 61659 of 2010 & other connected matters), that the view taken by the Selection Board is perverse and blunder has been committed by the Selection Board, is factually correct. It may be noted that the Court is under constitutional obligation to interfere in such matters, otherwise it would amount to confer immunity to selection Board in the matters of conducting selection in illegal and arbitrary manner. In these circumstances, it is wrong to say that the findings recorded by the learned Single Judge are perverse and erroneous. 25.(iii) This Court is of the view that once Board had issued circular dated 20.07.2011 clearly providing that alternative filed shall be arranged where there is no possibility of water logging, the concerning authorities were not justified in holding the Physical Efficiency Test on 21.7.2011 and 22.7.2011 at the same track and field where, admittedly, there was water logging and the condition of track/ field was improved by putting sand, etc. In case no
(53 of 55)
[CW-24701/2018]
alternative track/ field was available which does not appear to have been searched by the opposite parties, the Physical Efficiency Test scheduled for 20.7.2011 to 22.7.2011 should have been postponed and held on some other subsequent dates when the conditions of ground were improved and conducive to hold the test. The representations of petitioners could not have been rejected on the ground that some persons were able to successfully complete the physical Efficiency Test as it was a test for determining the minimum standard of physical efficiency and not comparative physical efficiency. In case a person is more physically efficient, it does not mean that the other person is not having the normal standard of physical efficiency as per requirement. It is to be noted that the delay of more than one hour 31 minutes to start the test on 21.7.2011 at Azamgarh and the report dated 23.7.2011 aforesaid clearly goes to show that the condition of ground on which the test was held was not conducive to hold the Physical Efficiency Test. The candidates were first subjected to physical labour by bringing and putting sand over the water logged portions before they could participate in the test. It is a matter of common knowledge and common prudence
(54 of 55)
[CW-24701/2018]
that the efficiency of a candidate participating in Physical Efficiency Test would be much better than a candidate or the person who is first subjected to physical labour for more than one and half hour and thereafter asked to run 10 kms in 75 minutes that too in such adverse conditions. As such the authorities holding the Physical Efficiency Test on 21.7.2011/ 22.7.2011 had not acted in accordance with the circular dated 20.7.2011 and had rather violated the said circular”.
(55 of 55)
[CW-24701/2018]
circumstances, unless the result shows an extremely startling result where it can be discerned plainly that no candidate or a very insignificant number of candidates could qualify, the Courts should be very circumspect in returning a finding of arbitrariness.
Dr. V.B. Sharma, AAG and Mr. Rupin Kala, G.C. have not disputed the fact of passing of the judgment in the matter of Shravan Kumar Choudhary (supra).
In that view of the matter, all these writ petitions are dismissed in view of the judgment passed in the matter of Shravan Kumar Choudhary (supra).
