East Coast Railway & Anr vs Mahadev Appa Rao & Ors

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to set aside the Central Administrative Tribunal's order cancelling the typewriting test for Chief Typists, emphasizing that the cancellation lacked sufficient reasoning. The Court found that the candidates were not given a fair opportunity, as they were not allowed to use their own typewriters or computers despite requests. The Court directed the railway authorities to proceed with the selection process based on the results of the original test conducted on 30th October 2006, thereby reinstating the validity of that test.
