Mr. Nalin G. Narayan accepts notice on behalf of Respondent No. 2 and the office is directed to reflect his name as counsel for Respondent No. 2. 3. Learned counsel for the petitioner, while placing reliance upon the order dated 04-12-2025 passed in Writ Petition No. 19009/2025 Babli Kumari Vs. Secretary, RSSB submits that Respondent No. 2 has issued Advertisement No. 9/2025 inviting applications for recruitment to the post of Teacher (Sanskrit) Level II for Class- VIth to VIIIth. It is further submitted that the petitioner, while filling up the online application form on the website portal of the respondent, filled in all the required details and also deposited a sum of Rs. 400/- as fee through online payment, whereupon a receipt bearing No. 25720596192 was generated and thereafter OTR No. #P23993816286K was issued in favour of the petitioner. However, suddenly the site crashed and the application form could not be completed. He further submitted that this Hon’ble Court has granted permission to identically placed persons in Babli Kumari (supra) and Rubina Yadav (connected with Babli Kumari). 4. Aforesaid contentions were opposed by the learned counsel appearing for Respondent No. 2, who submitted that the last date for filling up the application form was 06-12-2025 and the same [2025:RJ-JP:51471] (3 of 5) [CW-19751/2025] has already expired. He further submitted that the instant petition has been filed after the closure of the last date. 5. Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the material placed on record. 6. In the case of Babli Kumari and Rubina Yadav (supra), this Court considered specific issues wherein the name of the candidate was different from the Aadhaar Card and, in such a situation, OTP was not generated. This Court examined the said issue. Further, both Babli Kumari and Rubina Yadav had approached this Court well before the closing date of the application, and this Court passed an order dated 04-12-2025, facilitating resolution of their grievances well before the last date. In the present case, the petitioner has approached this Court after the last date of filling up the form. Thus, the case of the present petitioner is different from Babli Kumari and Rubina Yadav (supra). However, considering the fact that the petitioner could not fill up the application form due to crash of the website/portal, meaning thereby that there was heavy rush on the RSSB portal/website, and as a result, the petitioner could not complete the form. 7. Normally, recruitment agencies or agencies which invite applications and expect heavy traffic during last few days are required to ensure that additional capacity is generated during the last few days so that the increased rush is handled smoothly. However, in the instant case, if the website has crashed or was unable to bear the load, it reflects that the administrators of RSSB [2025:RJ-JP:51471] (4 of 5) [CW-19751/2025] did not anticipated the situation and were not adequately aware about the needs and requirements of the society. 8. We are a country where demographic data suggest that the majority of the population is under the age of 35 years, which means that a large number of aspiring youths are looking to participate and contribute to the development of the country. We are facing the highest-ever level of unemployment and an unorganised workforce. The trend clearly suggests that most of the youths in the country are rushing to secure government jobs. The educational system is also making inroads towards common man, and with the National Education Policy, 2020, the focus is on accessibility as well as affordability. With the increased number of educated youth, recruitment is bound to face an influx of lakhs of applications, and the recruitment agency is required to adopt futuristic methods so that a person desirous of filling up the form at the last minute is able to do so within a short span of time. 9. Herein, the counsel for Respondent No. 2 has failed to show, deployment of additional server capacity during the last few days when the traffic on portal has increased. The recruitment agencies are required to learn from traffic patterns, as there are peak hours and off-peak hours. Similar trends have been adopted by cab and taxi services. Even commercial airlines have adopted dynamic fare pricing, including early-bird offers. 10. The ideal example is that of IRCTC, and during rush hours (Tatkal booking) and just before festivals, additional servers are deployed so as to ensure that booking and financial transactions are carried out in a smooth manner. Recruitment agencies like [2025:RJ-JP:51471] (5 of 5) [CW-19751/2025] Respondent No. 2 are required to learn from the example of IRCTC, which handles the maximum number of transactions per minute in the world, and the same is a success story of modern India. 11. Having taken note of the aforesaid, I am of the considered view that the petitioner has no case, as the petitioner has not approached this Court immediately just after the last date. Moreover, the petitioner has not raised any grievance before Respondent No. 2, though the payment receipt and other details, as submitted by the present petitioner, indicate that he attempted to fill up the online application form but was not successful. Thus, no case is made out for interference. Hence, the writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India is hereby dismissed. 12. A copy of this order be sent to the Chairman, Rajasthan Staff Selection Board and RPSC for consideration and appropriate steps. (ASHOK KUMAR JAIN),J CHETNA BEHRANI /457
