Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the validity of a High Court's recruitment process for the Haryana Superior Judicial Service, which involved direct recruitment from the Bar under a 25% quota. The appellant challenged the non-appointment to the higher judicial service, despite the notification for recruitment. The Court analyzed whether the recruitment process adhered to constitutional and statutory provisions, ultimately upholding the validity of the selection process. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision.
