This judgment in the centre: on the left the decisions it cites, on the right the decisions citing it. Colour is the treatment; choose a decision to open it.
1. The petitioner participated in 2nd SLST for recruitment of Assistant Teachers, 2025 (Class IX-X/Secondary). He is aggrieved as his name has been published in the list of tainted candidates in connection with 3rd RLST 2016 for non-teaching staff.
2. The entire recruitment process of 2016 RLST stood set aside by this Court affirmed by the Hon’ble Supreme Court. The Hon’ble Supreme Court was pleased to indicate that no relief can be granted to the candidates whose names are included in the list of tainted candidates.
3. Such being the position, the prayer of the petitioner to process his candidature in the ongoing recruitment process cannot be allowed.
4. The writ petition fails and is hereby dismissed.
5. None represents the West Bengal Central School Service Commission. As the matter is being moved on urgent basis and a copy of the writ petition has been served in the office of the Commission, accordingly, the Court directs Dr Sutanu Kumar Patra, learned advocate who usually represents the Commission along with Ms Supriya Dubey, learned advocate, to enter appearance in the matter to defend the case.
6. All parties are to act on the server copy of this order duly downloaded from the official website of this court.
7. Certified server copy of this order, if applied for, shall be made available to the parties. [Amrita Sinha, J]
