Order
19/01/2021
Appellants have filed the appeal challenging the order
dated 23.11.2020 passed by the learned Single Judge, whereby,
writ petition filed by the appellants was dismissed.
(2 of 3) [SAW-945/2020]
We have heard learned counsel for the appellants and
have gone through the record available on the file carefully.
Impugned order dated 23.11.2020 reads as under:
"Admittedly, the petitioners have passed the Course through distance learning and therefore, would be governed by issue No.F as considered by this Court in the case of Lalit Kishor Versus State of Rajasthan & Others, SBCWP No.8908/2020 and other connected petitions, wherein it has been held as under:
"10.5 This court finds while the Supreme Court in Orissa Lift Irrigation Corporation Limited (supra) has disapproved the action of the AICTE in allowing the distance mode education in technical courses, it allowed the candidates who had passed the examination between 2001 to 2005 to appear for an examination, which may be conducted by the AICTE.
10.6 Keeping in view the aforesaid aspect, this Court is of the firm view that those candidates who have done Diploma in Medical Lab Technology by distance education mode cannot be treated at the moment to be eligible for appointment on the posts under the advertisement dated 12.06.2020. The qualification acquired by them shall be treated as suspended. However, the Rajasthan Para Medical Council is directed to device a framework for conducting examination for all those candidates who have acquired Diploma in Medical Lab Technology prior to 2015 by distance education mode and seek option from all the candidates to appear for an examination, which shall be conducted by them. If such students submit their option for appearing in the examination and pass the examination, their qualification acquired through distance education mode shall stand revived and they would be treated as eligible for future selection process. 10.7 In view of what has been held above, condition No.15(6) of the advertisement dated 12.06.2020 is also found to be justified and the candidates who have passed the course by distance education mode shall be treated as ineligible for appointment. The writ petitions of such petitioners are accordingly dismissed."
In view thereof, the writ petition is dismissed in terms of the aforesaid judgment."
Thus, the writ petition filed by the appellants was
dismissed because as per condition No. 15(6) of Advertisement
dated 12.06.2020, candidates, who had passed the course by
(3 of 3) [SAW-945/2020]
distance education mode, were to be treated as ineligible for
appointment.
Learned Single Judge, while deciding the writ petitions
in Lalit Kishor Vs. State of Rajasthan & Others (S.B. Civil Writ
Petition No. 8908/2020 and other connected matters), had placed
reliance on the judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Orissa
Lift Irrigation Corporation Limited Vs. Rabi Sankar Patro &
Others, (2018) 1 SCC 468. Issue involved in the present case
is similar to issue No. F in Lalit Kishor's case (supra).
No ground for interference is made out.
Dismissed.
