Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Delhi High Court affirming the Central Administrative Tribunal's order granting age relaxation to Seema Kapoor for the post of PGT (English) Female. The court reasoned that the respondent, being a government servant, was entitled to a five-year age relaxation as per the applicable rules. The appeal by the Delhi Subordinate Services Selection Board was dismissed, reinforcing the Tribunal's interpretation of the age limit provisions.
