IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. C.W.P. No.20094 of 2008 Date of Decision: 20.7.2010 Saloni and others. ....... Petitioners through Nemo. Versus State of Haryana and others. ....... Respondents through Shri Amit Goyal, Assistant Advocate General, Haryana. CORAM: HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE MAHESH GROVER .... 1. Whether Reporters of Local Newspapers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? .... Mahesh Grover,J. The petitioners seek a right of consideration for appointment on the posts of Lecturer in Fashion Designing and Lecturer in Fashion Technology. The respondents had issued advertisement, Annexure P1, inviting applications for selection and appointment on various posts including 7 posts of Lecturer in Fashion Technology and 7 posts of Lecturer in Fashion Design. The petitioners submitted their applications pursuant to that advertisement. According to them, they did not possess the qualifications mentioned in the advertisement and were having the degree of C.W.P. No.20094 of 2008 -2- .... M.Sc. in Clothing and Textiles. Reliance has been placed on Annexure P7 which is a communication from the Financial Commissioner & Principal Secretary to Government, Haryana, Technical Education Department to the Secretary, Haryana Public Service Commission to add the qualification of M.Sc. Clothing and Textile or equivalent with 2 years experience in the relevant field in the service rules so that the candidates possessing such degree could be considered for appointment on the posts of Lecturer in Fashion Design and Lecturer in Fashion Technology. This apparently was not carried out and the qualifications remained the same which were given out in advertisement, Annexure P1. In view of the above, the petitioners cannot insist that a particular qualification be incorporated in the advertisement so as to give them right of consideration. The right of a candidate for being considered shall always be on the basis of the eligibility criteria prescribed in the advertisement. Therefore, there is no merit in the writ petition and the same is dismissed. July 20,2010 ( Mahesh Grover ) “SCM” Judge
