U.P. Rajya Vidyut Par. App. Wel. ... vs State Of Uttar Pradesh & Ors.

The Supreme Court clarified that the direction regarding exemption from written examinations for trainees, as stated in para 13 of its earlier judgment, was specific to the cases at hand and does not establish a general principle. The Court upheld the views of the Allahabad High Court's Full Bench in Arvind Gautam v. State of U.P., affirming that apprentices must undergo examinations and interviews as per Recruitment Rules. Consequently, the Special Leave Petition was dismissed, reinforcing the necessity of following established recruitment procedures.
