The exercise stands completed and closed after the final order dated 03.07.2023 passed in the review petition. The claim of the appellants solely on the basis that they are more meritorious than such 178 persons, is found to be without basis as the said 178 persons form a separate class as recognized by the Supreme Court. No place of discrimination or violation of Article 14 of Constitution is thus, made out. The writ petition has been rightly dismissed.” SURESH KUMAR 2025.08.11 12:43 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document LPA-1630-2025 (O&M) 2.
