Charan Preet Singh vs Municipal Corporation Chandigarh

The Supreme Court examined the challenge to the Punjab and Haryana High Court's decision directing the Municipal Corporation Chandigarh to revise the recruitment exam score of a candidate for the post of Law Officer. The Court considered whether the High Court was justified in setting aside the Single Judge's dismissal of the writ petition and ordering reconsideration of the candidate's selection. The judgment focused on principles of fair recruitment, adherence to procedural norms, and the scope of judicial review in administrative decisions. Ultimately, the Supreme Court upheld the High Court's direction for score revision and reconsideration of selection, emphasizing the need for transparency and fairness in public employment.
