As many as 2,415 vacancies were advertised out of which 169 vacancies were reserved for EWS Female Divorcee Category. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that although the petitioner was possessing certificate of EWS Category entitling her for seeking reservation under the category, yet on account of inadvertent mistake, she could not submit the same at the time of filing her application form. However, after the result, when she applied EWS for correction of Category she was not allowed.

Even a bare perusal of the certificate would also reveal that it was valid only for the financial year 2020-21. Under the aforesaid circumstances, even on the basis of certificate dated 10.02.2022, the petitioner was not eligible for making application under EWS Female Divorcee Category. [2025:RJ-JP:33601] (3 of 3) [CW-12161/2024] 6. In view of above, no ground to interfere in the matter under Article 226 of the Constitution of India is made out.
