Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court, in Contempt Petition (C) 91 of 2006, held that the Uttar Pradesh Public Service Commission's failure to disclose cut-off marks and interview criteria constituted willful disobedience of the court's prior order under Article 129 of the Constitution and Section 2(b) of the Contempt of Courts Act, 1971. The court directed the respondents to comply with the earlier order and ensure transparency in the selection process for the posts of Principal and Senior Lecturer. The petitioners' requests for contempt proceedings and disclosure of marks were upheld, reinforcing the authority of the court in maintaining procedural fairness.
