Satish Rawat vs Union Of India & Ors

The Supreme Court upheld the Central Administrative Tribunal's decision to quash the appointment of the appellant as Inspector under the sports quota, citing that he failed the field test while the respondent No. 3 qualified in all stages of the selection process. The Court emphasized the importance of merit in recruitment under the sports quota and confirmed that the appellant's selection was not justified given his performance. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the Tribunal's directive to appoint the more meritorious candidate, respondent No. 3.
