1. Heard learned Counsel for the parties. Mr BG Ligade, the learned Chitra Sonawane. Page 1 of 2 ::: Uploaded on - 15/05/2026 ::: Downloaded on - 16/05/2026 03:40:34 ::: 11and13.doc Counsel appearing on behalf of the Petitioners, submits at the very outset that the issues in Sr 11 and 13 are similar and therefore, common order can be passed.
2. The Petitions are moved on the ground of urgency being that the final Select List for the post of the Administrative Officer, Group 'B', Public Health Department, pursuant to the Advertisement dated 19.03.2022, issued by the Respondent No.2 i.e. the MPSC, is being published by the MPSC, and if this is done, the Petitions will become infructuous.
3. Issue Notice returnable on 15.06.2026. Mr Kakade, the learned Additional GP waives service on behalf of the Respondent No.1. Humdast permitted.
4. Considering the fact that the MPSC has published the provisional merit list and is also in the process of publishing the final select list for the above post, it would be just and expedient to direct that any further steps taken by the said respondent shall be subject to the outcome of these Petitions.
5. We make it clear that we have not expressed any opinion on merits of the Petition. Stand over to 15.06.2026.
6. All parties to act on an authenticated copy of this order. [SANDESH D. PATIL, J] [ADVAIT M. SETHNA, J.] Chitra Sonawane. Page 2 of 2 ::: Uploaded on - 15/05/2026 ::: Downloaded on - 16/05/2026 03:40:34 :::
