Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the cancellation of the selection panel by the Railway Recruitment Board was arbitrary and irrational, as the appellant possessed qualifications higher than the minimum required. The Court emphasized that mere inclusion in a list does not confer a right, but erroneous administrative decisions can be challenged. The Court set aside the High Court's order and directed the implementation of the Tribunal's decision to complete the recruitment process, thereby upholding the appellant's claim.
