Rajpal vs State Of Maharashtra And Anr.

The Supreme Court held that the rejection of the appellant's application for regular appointment as a canal patwari was unjustified, as he possessed a valid 10+2 qualification from the Haryana Education Board, despite earlier qualifications from an unrecognized institution. The Court emphasized that the High Court should have allowed the writ petition instead of dismissing it. Consequently, the Court set aside the High Court's order and directed the Service Selection Board to reconsider the appellant's application based on his valid qualifications.
