Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court set aside the judgments of the High Court and the Administrative Tribunal, restoring the appellant's name in the rank list dated 14.6.2011, where she was ranked No. 23. The Court noted that the appellant was similarly situated to another candidate, Abokare K., who received relief in a prior case. The Court directed the respondents to issue an appointment order within two months, despite the rank list's expiration, due to the peculiar facts of the case.
