Naseem Ahmad & Ors vs State Of U.P.& Anr

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the appellants' appeal against the District Judge's order treating their appointments as ad hoc, citing G.Os. dated 27.02.1974 and 29.07.1995. The Court established that a wait list for Class IV appointments should not exceed twice the anticipated vacancies and must conclude once all vacancies advertised are filled. The Court affirmed the principle that appointments beyond the determined vacancies violate recruitment rules and the rights of other candidates.
