The writ petition is filed for a declaration that the action of the respondent not selecting the petitioner to the post of Junior Civil Judge pursuant to the notification dated 14.05.2007 is illegal and arbitrary and consequently for a direction to the respondent to select her as Junior Civil Judge. The petitioner applied for appointment to the post of Junior Civil Judge pursuant to the notification dated 14.05.2007 issued by the respondent notifying applications for filling up 105 posts Junior Civil Judges of which 85 are to be filled by direct recruitment. On issuing hall ticket, she appeared for screening test and by scoring 77 marks out of 100 qualified for written examination and appeared for the written examination as well, on 28.10.2007. She appeared for the interview on 11.12.2007 and assumes to have fared well in written examination and oral interview she was however not selected. When she applied under the Right to Information Act, 2005 for information, she was informed by the Information Officer of the respondent by the order dated 29.07.2008 that she was not selected since the last candidate selected under the B.C-B women category secured 115.70 marks while the petitioner also belongs to the B.C-B category secured only 114.12 marks. Nevertheless the writ petition is filed asserting that the petitioner was reasonably expecting higher marks. No reasons for such exalted expectation of petitioner were appraised. The petitioner filed along with the writ petition the answer sheets submitted by her in the written examination. We have perused the answer sheet of the petitioner and find no basis even prima facie for her assumption of extraordinary performance in the written examination. On the aforesaid analysis, there are no merits in this writ petition and the same is accordingly dismissed, but however, without costs. _________________ GODA RAGHURAM, J __________________________ SAMUDRALA GOVINDARAJULU, J Date:25.10.2010. ksh
