----Respondents
For Appellant(s) : Mr. Indresh Sharma
Mr. G.L. Sharma
For Respondent : Mr. H.V. Nandwana
HON'BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE MR. PANKAJ MITHAL HON'BLE MRS. JUSTICE SHUBHA MEHTA
Order
31/01/2023
1. Heard learned counsel for the petitioners-appellants and
learned counsel appearing for the private-respondents.
2. An advertisement was issued on 27.10.2020 by the
Rajasthan Public Service Commission (for short 'the RPSC')
inviting applications for the post of Yoga & Prakritik Chikitsa
Adhikari. The advertisement categorically provided that the
candidates appearing in the final year examination of a Bachelor
Degree in Naturopathy & Yogic Sciences (BNYS) can also apply,
provided they obtain the degree before the date of interview.
[2023/RJJP/000914] (3 of 3) [SAW-582/2022]
3. The candidature of the petitioners-appellants was rejected
as they were not possessed of the degree of BNYS on the date of
interview.
4. It is an admitted fact that the interview date was fixed on
27/28.12.2021, whereas according to the petitioners-appellants'
own showing, they completed their internship and the provisional
certificate or degree in that regard was issued to them on
28.03.2022 i.e. much after the date of interview.
5. In the above circumstances, the learned Single Judge
dismissed the writ petition filed by the petitioners-appellants on
the ground that they were not having requisite qualification, as
mentioned in the advertisement, on the date of interview and they
have failed to produce the certificate in that regard.
6. The submission of learned counsel for the petitioners-
appellants is that the RPSC has arbitrarily fixed the date of
interview as 27/28.12.2021, so as to oust them from the selection
process.
7. The matter of fixing a date for interview is strictly in the
domain of the RPSC and is not a justiciable matter. Moreover,
there is no reason as to why the RPSC would have fixed a date for
interview detriment to the petitioners-appellants as it had no
grudge against any particular candidate.
8. In view of the aforesaid facts and circumstances, we find no
error or illegality in the judgment and order of the Writ Court. The
appeal lacks merit and is accordingly dismissed.
