Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision to quash the selection process for the Technical Assistant-Group-C in the Agriculture Department, citing the Uttar Pradesh Public Services (Reservation for Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Other Backward Classes) Act, 1994. The Court found that the initial calculation of category-wise vacancies was erroneous, necessitating a revision to comply with statutory reservation mandates. Consequently, the Court directed the State to conduct fresh interviews based on the corrected requisition of vacancies.
