The petitioner in the present writ petition has prayed for a direction upon the respondent authorities for considering his case for appointment against the post of Class- III, HSSLC (Science) category by reckoning his OBC caste status.

Accordingly, his name was not incorporated in the select list. The said position is not disputed by the petitioner, however, Mr. S.N.
