Counsel has also drawn attention of this Court to the order passed by the Supreme Court in Civil Appeal No. 7663/2021 (Praveen Kumar Kurmi vs. The State of Madhya Pradesh and others) where, the Supreme Court, in a case of similarly situated candidates had preferred an appeal before the Supreme Court which held that a person from the reserved category, though falling within the eligibility of the general seat on account of his high merit, should not be placed to a disadvantageous position as regard the service and post viz-a-viz a candidate who may be placed below him.
Under the circumstances, the petition is disposed of with a request to the respondents No.2 and 3 to consider the representation of the petitioners within a period of 60 days in light of the judgment of the Supreme Court in Civil Appeal No. 7663/2021 and also in light of the judgment of Supreme Court in Ritesh R. Sah vs. Dr. Y.L. Yamul and others (1996) 3 SCC 253. Signature Not Verified Signed by: AJIT KAMALASANAN Signing time: 20-12-2022 18:27:19
If the case of the petitioners is similar to the case of the appellants in Civil Appeal No.7663/2021, then similar benefits be extended to the petitioners herein.
With the aforesaid, the petition is finally disposed of. The Court makes it clear that it has not passed any observations of the merit of the case and the said representations be decided strictly in accordance with law uninfluenced by the observations of this Court.
Certified copy, as per rules.
