Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court reviewed the validity of a recruitment process initiated in 2006, which was challenged in the High Court and subsequently appealed. The Court clarified that the determination of equivalence of qualifications is within the purview of the State as the recruiting authority, and not the judiciary. The Court set aside the High Court's order that had held the Diploma in Art & Craft of Kurukshetra University equivalent to the Haryana Diploma, emphasizing the authority of the State in such matters. The judgment underscores the importance of administrative discretion in qualification equivalence for recruitment.
