Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the Uttar Pradesh Public Service Commission's decision to not forward additional names from the wait-list for Sub Deputy Inspector of Schools was erroneous, as the High Court correctly computed the one-year validity of the wait-list from the last recommendation date rather than the initial recommendation date. The Court emphasized that the wait-list should be operated within one year from the last recommendation, thereby upholding the High Court's order to send additional names to the Director of Education (Basic). The appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's judgment dated 18.05.2018.
