Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Delhi High Court's Division Bench, which quashed the Food Corporation of India's (FCI) rejection of the original writ petitioner's application for the post of Assistant Grade-II (Hindi). The Court found that the petitioner had provided sufficient evidence of her requisite experience in translation from English to Hindi, as supported by certificates dated 14.01.2015 and 18.07.2016. The Court emphasized that the FCI's earlier dismissal based on lack of experience was unjustified, thereby allowing the appeal and reinstating the petitioner's eligibility for appointment.
