DELHI SUBORDINATE SERVICES SELECTION BOARD Vs. PREETI BALAYAN
LAWS(DLH)-2013-3-126
HIGH COURT OF DELHI
Decided on March 18,2013

DELHI SUBORDINATE SERVICES SELECTION BOARD Appellant
VERSUS
Preeti Balayan Respondents

JUDGEMENT

PRADEEP NANDRAJOG,J. - (1.)NONE had appeared for the respondents No.1/review applicant when arguments were heard in the writ petition on February 01, 2013. The decision was pronounced on February 06, 2013.
(2.)19 original applications filed by different persons, including the first respondent Preeti Balyan were disposed of by a common judgment and order dated March 30, 2012.
Concededly, the impugned order did not deal with the specific and distinctive fact pertaining to the first respondent. The decision by the Tribunal dealt with an altogether different set of facts, pertaining to other applicants before the Tribunal, but as we would be noticing hereinafter the view taken by the Tribunal was incidentally to the benefit of the first respondent as well. Since vide order dated February 06, 2013 we have set aside the impugned decision dated March 30, 2012, the petitioner has filed the review petition.

(3.)FACTS pertaining to the first respondent are that the advertisement dated December 29, 2009 inviting applications from eligible candidates to the post of Primary Teacher mandated that the minimum educational qualification was a 'two years diploma/certificate course in ETE/JBT or equivalent or B.El.Ed.' from a recognized institution. The closing date by which applications could be submitted was January 15, 2010, which happened to be the cutoff date to acquire eligibility. Admittedly, first respondent had not obtained the requisite degree/diploma, which she did only in July, 2011. In spite thereof she filed the application.
