Order

18/04/2022

The present petition has been filed with the prayer for

consideration of the candidature of the petitioner for the post of

Jail Warden in the category of General (women) in pursuance to

the advertisement of the year 2015. It has been submitted that

because of the normalization process adopted by the respondent

Department, the marks obtained by the petitioner were reduced

whereas of the other candidates were increased abnormally.

Therefore the petitioner was not selected whereas the other

candidates whose marks had abnormally been increased because

of the normalization have been selected.

(2 of 3) [CW-7339/2018]

Counsel for the petitioner relied upon the judgment passed

by the Division Bench of this Court in D.B. Civil Writ Petition

No.3942/2007 (Sarita Noushad Vs. RPSC & Ors.), decided on

27.10.2009.

A reply has been filed on behalf of the respondent

Department and it has been submitted that in the present

recruitment, a normalization process was adopted by the

Department and for the same, an Expert Committee was also

constituted. It has been submitted that the petitioner obtained

285 marks in the written examination and 100 marks in the

Physical Efficiency Test. Overall she secured 385 marks which

were reduced to 383.85 after normalization. It has been submitted

that the cut-off for the General (women) category of Bikaner

Mandal was declared to be 396.19 and the petitioner having

secured 383.85 marks was not entitled to be appointed.

A bare perusal of the facts and the documents available on

record shows that the cut-off declared by the Department qua the

category for which the petitioner applied was 396.19 marks and

the petitioner obtained 385 marks which were reduced to 383.85

after normalization. Even if the normalization process is directed

to not to be applied in the case of the petitioners, she having

obtained 385 marks would even otherwise be not entitled as the

last cut-off was 396.19 marks.

Therefore, it is clear on record that the petitioner cannot be

granted any relief in the present petition and hence when no relief

can be granted to the petitioner, this Court is not inclined to enter

in the issue of normalization as raised in the present writ petition

and to go into the question as to whether the ratio laid down in

(3 of 3) [CW-7339/2018]

Sarita Noushad's case (supra) will apply to the present matter

or not.

In view of the above observations, the present writ petition

is dismissed.
