                                      Order

11/10/2022


In pursuance to the advertisement dated 20.07.2021 the

petitioner applied for Rajasthan State and Subordinate Services

(Joint Competitive Examination), 2021. The last date for

submitting the application form was 27.08.2021. The written

examination was conducted by the RPSC on 20.03.2022 and

21.03.2022 and the category-wise result of the examination was

declared by the RPSC on 30.08.2022. After declaration of the

result, the petitioner applied for the change of her category from

SC-Woman to SC-Divorcee on 06.09.2022.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that due to

human error, wrong category has been filled by the petitioner in

her application form. Counsel submits that no third party rights

have been created as of now therefore, prayed that the

(2 of 3) [CW-14589/2022]

respondents be directed to change her category from SC-Woman

to SC-Divorcee.

Learned counsel appearing on behalf of RPSC opposed the

writ petition and submitted that in the advertisement itself the

procedure for change of category has been provided according to

which a candidate who is widow/divorcee/specially abed persons

can change their category prior to conducting the main

examination. Counsel further submits that admittedly the decree

of divorce was granted in favour of the petitioner on 03.10.2016.

Counsel further submits that after declaring the category-wise

result by the RPSC on 03.08.2022, third party rights have already

been created and prayed for dismissal of the writ petition.

In support of his contention, learned counsel relied upon a

judgment passed by Division Bench of this Court at Jaipur Bench

in the case of Rajasthan Public Service Commission Vs.

Yogita Yaduvanshi (D.B. Civil Special Appeal (Writ)

No.804/2020) decided on 19.03.2021.

Heard learned counsel for both the parties and perused the

record.

This writ petition filed by the petitioner deserves to be

dismissed; for the reasons, firstly, according to the procedure

prescribed in the advertisement dated 20.07.2021 the petitioner

can change her category prior to written examination whereas in

the present case the petitioner has admittedly applied for change

of her category after declaration of result, secondly, since the

RPSC has declared category-wise result of the examination,

therefore, third party rights have already been created, thirdly, in

view of the judgment passed by the Division Bench of this Court at

Jaipur Bench in the case of Rajasthan Public Service

(3 of 3) [CW-14589/2022]

Commission (supra) no case is made out for interference by this

Court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India.

Hence, this writ petition is dismissed.
