Beena Kumari Meena D/O Badri Narayan Meena v. Rajasthan Staff Selection Board
Case brief
What is this about?
A Division Bench of the Rajasthan High Court dismissed special appeals challenging the final answer key of a Teacher Grade III examination. The court held that judicial review is limited to ensuring the process was fair, regular, and free from illegality, rather than substituting the court's opinion on the correct answer. Relying on expert committees' reasoning and noting that majority appointments had already been made, the court deemed it improper to alter the key as changing it would cause cascading adverse effects on public administration.
What did the court decide?
The special appeals (writs) are dismissed. Pending applications, if any, stand disposed. No order as to cost.
