Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to quash the cancellation of the respondents' candidature for the Junior Accounts Officers examination, emphasizing the need for transparency in the communication of examination results as mandated by Rule 13 of the Post & Telegraph Manual. The Court ruled that the respondents were entitled to know their marks and that the cancellation was unjustified without proper evidence of irregularities. Consequently, the appellants were directed to disclose the marks and grant promotions accordingly.
