Headnote | Service Law: Selection – Interference with selection process — Main (Written) Examination of Civil Judge wherein total 1195 candidates appeared and only 9 cleared the exam – Unsuccessful candidates challenging the entire selection process and evaluation method adopted therein and sought quashing of the result and reevaluation by independent expert Committee – Held: No discriminatory or malafide practice was undertaken while conducting the exam or its following processes – Officials of the High Court ensured adequate security measures – Procedure of evaluation was ‘uniform’ – Every candidate’s answers were marked on same parameters by the same examiner – There was no examiner variability but marking and evaluation method was strict but it was so for everyone, thus, the option of moderation is applied – Alternative II of the Report by Justice Sikri is adopted, awarding 20 marks in Civil Law I and 10 marks in Civil law II – Prayer for reevaluation by an Independent Expert Committee cannot be accepted – Also petitioners’ plea that marks of the Main Exam should be disclosed before conducting viva-voce, cannot be accepted since that would invite bias or favourtism affecting the impartial evaluation of a candidate in viva-voce – Thus, respondents directed to award 20 grace marks in Civil Law-I paper and 10 grace marks in Civil Law-II paper to all the candidates – Issuance of direction to prepare fresh results of the Main (Written) Examination of Civil Judge and complete the selection process within the stipulated period – Constitution of India – Art. 32 - Judicial service. |
