Jharkhand HC stays cancellation of JPSC, Food Safety Officer recruitment exams

Published by Parlour News

The Jharkhand High Court on Thursday stayed the notifications cancelling the 11th to 13th Jharkhand Public Service Commission (JPSC) Combined Civil Services Examination and the Food Safety Officer recruitment examination, along with related appointments. JPSC-JSSC aspirants wave the national flag as they celebrate after the Jharkhand government accepted their demands recently. (ANI) The interim order passed by Justice Deepak Roushan brought relief to around 400 successful candidates — 342 under JPSC and 54 under the Food Safety Officer recruitment — whose career prospects were left hanging after the state government’s sudden decision to scrap the recruitment processes. The high court passed the interim order while hearing a batch of four writ petitions challenging the state’s notifications. The petitions were filed by aggrieved candidates — Deepmala, Sonam Kumari, Saurabh Singh and Ashutosh Kumar — who argued that the government’s blanket cancellation was arbitrary, unjust and violated the well-established principles of natural justice.
