A division bench of Telangana High Court on Friday declined to stall the Group-I preliminary examination being convened by Telangana State Public Service Commission on Sunday.
Justices Abhinand Kumar Shavili and Namavarapu Rajeshwar Rao dismissed a writ appeal challenging a single judge order not to interfere with the conducting of Group-I preliminary test. The judges, however, made it clear that final selection of the candidates through the TSPSC test would be subject to the outcome of the result of the writ petitions pending before the HC.
Petitioner S. Muralidhar Reddy’s counsel J. Sudheer contended that TSPSC’s credibility was at its lowest ebb with the Special Investigation Team (SIT) making fresh arrests with each passing day. The lawyer argued that probe into the leakage of question paper pertaining to Assistant Engineers and other posts was not yet complete.
