Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the interpretation of Rules 14 to 17 of the Kerala State & Subordinate Services Rules, 1958, concerning the selection of candidates for the post of Medical Officer (ISM). The Court held that the Kerala Public Service Commission acted in accordance with the Rules, and the selection process did not violate the principles of communal rotation and reservation. Consequently, the appeals were dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision that the selection process was valid and lawful.
