Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the appeals concerning the selection of Horticulture Development Officers in the Agricultural Production and Rural Development Department, affirming the High Court's decision that the Public Service Commission did not compromise merit in the selection process. The Court noted that all writ petitioners had participated in the screening test and that not all affected parties were present before the Single Judge. Consequently, the appeals were dismissed without any orders as to costs.
