Vs. State of 2025:JHHC:16875-DB 2 L.P.A.

It has been submitted that the petitioner, having found to be under the zone of consideration, has been called for consideration of his candidature but he has not been found to have the degree of post graduation in Sanskrit as he failed to produce the relevant certificate. Hence, his candidature has been rejected on the ground of lack of education qualification. The said submission has been made, based upon the averments made by JSSC at para 49 to 54 in their counter affidavit filed in the instant appeal. 4. Upon this, learned counsel for the appellant has sought for leave of this Court to withdraw this appeal with a liberty to challenge the fresh order of rejection before the appropriate Court, if the petitioner so wishes. 5.
