Regional Engineering College ... vs Karan Singh Saini & Ors

The Supreme Court held that the appointment of appellant No.2 as Junior Engineer (Civil) was made in accordance with Rule 11(1) of the Non-Teaching Staff Service Rules, 1984, and thus the High Court erred in setting aside this appointment. The Court emphasized the necessity of adhering to established procedures for appointments and found that the High Court's directive for a fresh advertisement was unwarranted. Consequently, the Supreme Court allowed the appeal and set aside the High Court's order.
