JPSC to pay Rs 1L to candidate in recruitment case
Ranchi: Jharkhand high court on Friday imposed a cost of Rs 1 lakh on the Jharkhand Public Service Commission (JPSC), while dismissing an appeal filed by the latter against a candidate. The division bench headed by Chief Justice MS Ramachandra Rao while dismissing the appeal upheld the order of a single judge and imposed the cost of Rs 1 lakh on the Commission which is to be paid to the petitioner, Manoj Kumar Kachhap, in eight weeks. Kachhap had filed a petition before the single bench of the HC stating that he was a candidate and had applied for the post of assistant professor in 2018. He appeared for the exams after scrutiny of his documents by the commission. But at the time of interview, he was told that the fees deposited for the exam was not credited in JPSC's account and therefore his candidature could not be considered. Kachhap told the court that he wasn't informed about it before the interview. In another matter, the high court imposed a cost of Rs 8,000 on former chief minister Madhu Koda for seeking adjournment in a case for the fourth time. Koda had filed the case challenging prosecution against him in the Rajiv Gandhi Electrification Project scam amounting to Rs 11.40 crores. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Pinga-Pinga e HBP?

Jharkhand HC imposes Rs one lakh fine on JPSC for denying job to competent ST candidate
RANCHI: Upholding the order of single bench, the double bench of Jharkhand High Court headed by Chief Justice MS Ramachandra Rao, imposed a fine of Rs one lakh on Jharkhand Public Service Commission (JPSC) for wrongfully rejecting a qualified Scheduled Tribe (ST) candidate Manoj Kumar Kachhap's application for the post of Assistant Professor. The court had earlier reserved its judgment after hearing arguments from both the parties. Kachhap had scored 72.10 out of a possible 85 marks in the academic evaluation. However, his name did not appear in the list of candidates shortlisted for interviews. Disappointed Kachhap made an enquiry and discovered that his application had been invalidated because the online examination fee, he had paid, did not reach the JPSC account due to some technical error. Owing to non-payment of the examination fees his application was considered invalid. Significantly, his name was not mentioned in the official rejection list, leaving him unaware of the issue. Kachhap then approached Jharkhand High Court and filed a writ petition. After a thorough hearing, a single bench of the High Court had given the verdict in his favour. The single bench ordered that he be included in the interview process, noting that the final decision would hinge on the court's verdict. JPSC complied, and Kachhap appeared for the interview.
