Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court allowed the impleadment application in a writ petition challenging the Madhya Pradesh High Court's resolution regarding seniority in the Higher Judicial Services. The petitioners, who are District Judges, contested the decision that the merit from the Limited Competitive Examinations would not influence their seniority. The court emphasized the importance of merit in promotions and referred to previous judgments that support a merit-based approach in judicial appointments.
