Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the interpretation of a circular from the Madhya Pradesh government regarding the recruitment of handicapped persons for reserved posts. The Court held that the circular's provisions must be adhered to in the recruitment process, ensuring that the 3% reservation for handicapped candidates is effectively implemented. The appeals were allowed, and the High Court's orders were set aside, emphasizing the need for compliance with the state's policy on reservations for disabled persons.
