GOPAL SINGH Vs. STATE OF RAJASTHAN

Decided On November 26, 2013
GOPAL SINGH Appellant
V/S
STATE OF RAJASTHAN Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) The petitioners, Gopal Singh Rajpurohit S/o Lal Singh and Sagar Ram Nain S/o Manohar Ram Nain, have preferred this writ petition as they were not selected in the selection process held for the post of Physical Training Instructor Grade II and III Examination, 2011, conducted by the respondent-RPSC under the Notification (Annex.1) dated 14.12.2011.

(2.) Without approaching the respondent- RPSC, the petitioners straightway have approached this Court by way of present writ petition with the case that though the cut-off marks for General and OBC categories was 340.55, and the petitioner No.1- Gopal Singh Rajpurohit, secured only 338.6 marks and the petitioner No.2- Sagar Ram Nain, secured only 337.33 marks, vide mark sheets produced with the writ petition as Annex.5 (Page 27 and 28 of the paper book), they were entitled to higher marks on account of their participation in the National Level Games/Inter-Zone Level Games, for which separate "28" marks were allocated vide Annex.7, a sheet giving such distribution of such marks.

(3.) The petitioners claimed that since they participated in the Inter-University Tournament at National or Inter-Zone level, they ought to have been awarded 28 marks as per Column No.4 of the National Level Games in the said document (Annex.7) with relation to said selection process of P.T.I. Gr. II and III, however, since the petitioners have been awarded only "16" marks for their participation in the National Level game vide Annex.5, instead of 28 marks, and thus they have been wrongly kept below the cut off marks of 340.55 in the OBC (Male) category and, therefore, appropriate writ deserves to be issued to the respondent RPSC for awarding them higher marks as the petitioners have participated in National Level Game/Inter-Zone Level Games for being considered for such appointment on the post of P.T.I. Grade II and III.
