KHUB RAM vs DALBIR SINGH & ORS.

The Supreme Court held that the selection criteria for the post of Chief Inspector in Haryana Roadways, as per the advertisement dated 07.05.1989, required candidates to have two years of experience specifically in Government/Semi-government or Public Undertakings, which the appellant Khub Ram failed to demonstrate. The Court upheld the High Court's decision to quash Khub Ram's appointment due to lack of requisite experience and directed the appointment of the writ petitioner, Dalbir Singh, with all consequential benefits. The Court also granted permission for Mahavir Prasad's Special Leave Petition, emphasizing the importance of adhering to the stipulated qualifications in public employment.
