The facts are being<\/p>\n<p>taken from Civil Writ Petition No.16651 of 2003.\n<\/p>\n<p>           The       petitioners   have   challenge    the    selection    of<\/p>\n<p>candidates appointed to the posts of Principal\/senior Specialists<\/p>\n<p>(H.E.S. Class II School Cadre) made pursuant to the advertisement<\/p>\n<p>dated 5.3.2002, Annexure P-2. On 5.3.2002, Haryana Public Service<\/p>\n<p>Commission (hereinafter referred to as &#8220;Commission&#8221;) invited<\/p>\n<p>applications   for    85   posts   of   Principals,   Government       Senior<\/p>\n<p>Secondary Schools\/Senior Specialists HES-II out of which 53 posts<\/p>\n<p>were meant for general category. The qualification prescribed for<\/p>\n<p>these posts were M.A\/M.Sc.\/M.Com. IInd Division and B.T.\/B.Ed. or<\/p>\n<p>its equivalent along with 8 years&#8217; experience as on 5.4.2002. The<\/p>\n<p>petitioners, being fully eligible, applied for the said posts. Screening<\/p>\n<p>test was held on 25.5.2002. The result thereof was published on<\/p>\n<p>5\/6.6.2002. On 26.6.2002 onwards, the petitioners were called for<\/p>\n<p>interview. They, however, were not selected. They were also not<\/p>\n<p>disclosed the marks for screening test or for interview. They were<\/p>\n<p>also unaware of the criteria, which was adopted for the interview. The<\/p>\n<p>final result of the interview was published on 13.8.2002. The<\/p>\n<p>petitioners obtained some information about the selected candidates.<\/p>\n<p>They accordingly filed these writ petitions, alleging that the selection<\/p>\n<p>has been made to accommodate kith and kin of members and even<\/p>\n<p>the ineligible persons, who did not fulfill the requisite experience of 8<br \/>\n CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO.16651 OF 2003                          :{ 3 }:\n<\/p>\n<p>years teaching had been selected. The petitioners accordingly<\/p>\n<p>approached the Commission with a prayer to supply the criteria<\/p>\n<p>adopted by them for making selection. However, when the<\/p>\n<p>Commission did not supply any information in response to the<\/p>\n<p>representation, the petitioners filed Civil Writ Petition No.16913 of<\/p>\n<p>2002 for a direction to the respondents to supply the criteria adopted<\/p>\n<p>for making selection to the posts of Principals and so also the details<\/p>\n<p>of marks, which the petitioners and other selected candidates have<\/p>\n<p>obtained. This prayer of the petitioners was not accepted by this<\/p>\n<p>Court. However, it was observed that it would always be open for the<\/p>\n<p>petitioners to challenge the selection of selected candidates and<\/p>\n<p>accordingly, the petitioners have filed the present writ petitions.<\/p>\n<p>            When the case came up for hearing on 11.2.2009, this<\/p>\n<p>Court observed that        criteria laid down by the Commission for<\/p>\n<p>recruitment to the posts of Principal be placed on record of the<\/p>\n<p>aforesaid writ petition. Complying with this order, the Commission<\/p>\n<p>through its Application No.6781 of 2009 placed on record additional<\/p>\n<p>reply, mentioning the criteria, which was followed by the Commission<\/p>\n<p>while making recruitment to the posts of Principal, HES Class II. A<\/p>\n<p>perusal of the criteria placed on record revealed that there were total<\/p>\n<p>100 marks for viva-voce test, which were distributed as under:-<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>            &#8220;1.

This permission<\/p>\n<p>was granted vide order dated 16.4.2009 with a direction that advance<\/p>\n<p>copies be provided to the counsel for the respondents to file<\/p>\n<p>response thereto. The petitioners, therefore, filed an application,<\/p>\n<p>pointing out infirmities and arbitrariness in the criteria that was<\/p>\n<p>adopted by the Commission. The challenge to the criteria was made<br \/>\n CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO.16651 OF 2003                       :{ 6 }:\n<\/p>\n<p>on number of grounds as contained in the said application with a<\/p>\n<p>plea that fixing of viva-voce marks in this manner will violate the<\/p>\n<p>provisions of Article 14 of the Constitution of India and as such, it<\/p>\n<p>was accordingly liable to be struck down. Some submissions were<\/p>\n<p>made on the basis of law laid down in Ajay Hasia Vs. Khalid Mujib<\/p>\n<p>Sehravardi, 1981 (1) SCC 722 and Ashok Kumar Yadav and<\/p>\n<p>others Vs.      State of Haryana and others, 1985 (4) SCC 417.<\/p>\n<p>Basically, it was alleged that 100 marks fixed for evaluation only on<\/p>\n<p>the basis of interview would lead to arbitrary consideration and<\/p>\n<p>selection and hence, was bad on that count.\n<\/p>\n<p>            The Commission filed a response to this challenge raised<\/p>\n<p>on behalf of the petitioners in the application. The criteria adopted by<\/p>\n<p>the respondent-Commission has been justified. It is stated in the<\/p>\n<p>reply that the criteria does not suffer from any illegality or infirmity as<\/p>\n<p>pointed out in the application. It is further pleaded that the petitioners<\/p>\n<p>had participated in the selection process and once having not<\/p>\n<p>succeeded there at, have chosen to challenge the criteria. Reference<\/p>\n<p>is made to number of judgments in this regard to say that where the<\/p>\n<p>challenge was made to the process of selection after participation,<\/p>\n<p>such a challenge would not need consideration. Justifying the<\/p>\n<p>method of selection and appointment, it is pointed out that yardstick<\/p>\n<p>to be followed for allocation of marks in cases where the selection is<\/p>\n<p>made on the basis of written test and viva-voce can not be applied to<\/p>\n<p>the case in which selection is exclusively made on the basis of<\/p>\n<p>interviews. Accordingly, the judgments relied upon by counsel for the<\/p>\n<p>petitioners have been distinguished.\n<\/p>\n<p>            When the matter came up for hearing on 23.7.2009, the<br \/>\n CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO.16651 OF 2003                        :{ 7 }:\n<\/p>\n<p>submissions on behalf of the petitioners ultimately centered around<\/p>\n<p>the fact of fixing 75 marks for the interview. This, according to the<\/p>\n<p>petitioners, could be utilised in the discretion of the Members to<\/p>\n<p>select the preferred ones. From this, counsel for the petitioners have<\/p>\n<p>forcefully argued that arbitrariness in fixing the criteria is indicated.<\/p>\n<p>             In this background, it is thought proper to call for the<\/p>\n<p>record of selection to see in case any of the candidate has been<\/p>\n<p>given excessive marks during interview or in other words, the<\/p>\n<p>candidates who were not selected and were the petitioners, were<\/p>\n<p>brought down while assessing them in the interview so as to oust<\/p>\n<p>them. The evaluation done by the Interview Committee was<\/p>\n<p>summoned to be placed before the Court in a sealed cover.<\/p>\n<p>Mr.Mehtani today has brought before this Court the record of<\/p>\n<p>selected candidates as well as those candidates who could not make<\/p>\n<p>it on the basis of merit. I have perused the record and have noticed<\/p>\n<p>that there is not much substantial difference in the assessment of<\/p>\n<p>candidates in the interview marks. Generally there is a difference of 1<\/p>\n<p>or 2 marks in the assessment of candidates as far as the interview is<\/p>\n<p>concerned. In some of the cases, the marks obtained by the<\/p>\n<p>candidates, who could not be selected, were rather little higher than<\/p>\n<p>those who did make the grade. I am, thus, satisfied that there is no<\/p>\n<p>arbitrariness or discrimination noticeable from the marking in the<\/p>\n<p>interview. Otherwise also, the selection in the present case was<\/p>\n<p>made in the year 2002 and the candidates selected have already<\/p>\n<p>worked for over a period of 7 years. Prima-facie, I have not been able<\/p>\n<p>to see any arbitrariness or unfairness in the method of selection or<\/p>\n<p>fixing of criteria, I am   not inclined to interfere in exercise of writ<br \/>\n CIVIL WRIT PETITION NO.16651 OF 2003                      :{ 8 }:\n<\/p>\n<p>jurisdiction.\n<\/p>\n<p>                The writ petitions are accordingly dismissed.
