The Jharkhand High Court has stayed the order that cancelled 99 appointments made through the JSSC-CGL recruitment, allowing the selected candidates to retain their positions.
The Jharkhand High Court issued an interim order staying the cancellation of ninety-nine appointments that had been made under the Jharkhand Staff Selection Commission's Combined Graduate Level (JSSC-CGL) recruitment drive. The stay means that the candidates who were previously selected will continue to hold their posts until the matter is fully adjudicated.
The cancellation order, which had been passed by the JSSC, was challenged on grounds of procedural irregularities and alleged violation of service rules. The bench hearing the case found sufficient merit in the petitioners' arguments to warrant a temporary suspension of the cancellation.
Legal experts note that the High Court's intervention provides immediate relief to the affected candidates, but the final verdict will depend on a detailed examination of the recruitment process and the reasons cited for the original cancellation.
The decision underscores the judiciary's role in overseeing administrative actions related to public employment, especially in a state where government jobs are highly sought after.
Further hearings are scheduled, and the JSSC has been directed to maintain the status quo for the 99 positions pending the court's final order.
