The Madras high court on Friday ordered notice to the Tamil Nadu Public Service Commission (TNPSC) on a plea seeking to quash notification issued by the commission for recruitment for 6,491 posts in Group-IV services.
Admitting the plea moved by R Balamurugan, of Madurai, Justice V Parthiban directed the commission to respond to the plea by June 26. According to the petitioner, the TNPSC conducted recruitment for vacancies in Group-IV in June 2013 in which he participated. Though he was not a successful candidate, he was kept in the waiting list.
Though candidates were selected to fill all the existing vacancies through the 2013 recruitment, about 800 could not be filled due to non-joining of duty or leaving shortly after joining the posts by the selected candidates.
Instead of filling the vacancies with candidates from the waitlist, the commission issued another notification on April 14, 2014 for filling up 5,566 posts in Group-IV services. The petitioner challenged the notification and the high court on April 30, 2015 passed an order directing TNPSC fill up the backlog vacancies before publishing the selection list of 2014 recruitment.
Since the TNPSC filled only 107 backlog vacancies from the waitlist even after the court’s direction and proceeded to issue notification for fresh recruitment on June 7 clubbing the old vacancies with new, the petitioner has once again moved the court challenging the commission’s actions. As an interim relief, the petitioner wanted the court to stay the operation of the notification pending disposal of the plea.
