STATE BANK OF INDIA vs BIR SINGH

The Supreme Court upheld the Allahabad High Court's decision directing the appointment of a candidate from a waiting list, despite the cancellation of the wait-list procedure in 1980. The Court emphasized that while candidates on the wait-list do not have a right to appointment, the Corporation must notify them before appointing juniors. The Court recognized the expectation of candidates regarding potential appointments and directed the Corporation to consider the respondent's case as a special circumstance due to the appointment of juniors. The appeal was disposed of without costs.
