CWP No. 1639 of 2008 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. CWP No. 1639 of 2008 Date of decision: November 11, 2008 Tejinderpal Singh --- Petitioner Versus Secretary, Subordinate Services selection Board and others ---- Respondents CORAM: Hon'ble Mr. Justice Ashutosh Mohunta Hon'ble Mr. Justice Rajan Gupta Present: Mr. Amrik Singh , Advocate, for the petitioner. Mr. Yatinder Sharma, Sr. DAG, Punjab,f or respondents No.1 to 3. Mr. Sarmukh Singh, Advocate, for respondent No. 5. Mr. VK Thakur, Advocate, for respondent No. 6 & 7, Ms. Alka Chatrath, Advocate, for respondent No. 10. Mr. SS Brar, Advocate, for respondent No. 11. Ashutosh Mohunta, J (Oral). The petitioner has prayed for quashing the selection of respondents No. 4 to 13 as Science Masters made by respondent No.1. The petitioner had applied for the post of Science Master in freedom fighter (dependent) category. Counsel for the respondents has shown us the original form of the petitioner wherein he had applied for the category of freedom fighter (dependent). He states that the merit of the petitioner is much lower i.e. 122.05 marks than the last selected candidate, who secured 125.83 marks. Counsel for the petitioner submits that in fact the CWP No. 1639 of 2008 2 petitioner had filled up three separate forms in which he had applied for Ex-Servicemen ( dependent) category as well. He, however, concedes that the petitioner had applied in the category of freedom fighter (dependent) also. Counsel for the petitioner has been shown in Court the original forms filled in by the petitioner. In none of the forms filled up by the petitioner, he has applied in Ex-servicemen (dependent) category. In view of the above, the averments made by the petitioner are absolutely false. He has secured much lower merit than the last selected candidate in the category of freedom fighter (dependent). Consequently the writ petition is dismissed.
