Full Judgment

05.09.2026

Per Dr. Pushpendra Singh Bhati, J:

1. The instant batch of intra-court appeals arises out of the

common judgment dated 09.01.2025, whereby the writ petitions

forming Group ‘A’ were allowed, the merit/select list issued by the

Rajasthan Public Service Commission in recruitment to the post of

Veterinary Officer was quashed to the extent it included

candidates who had neither appeared in the Final Year

Examination of B.V.Sc. nor submitted their examination forms by

24.11.2019, and the Commission was directed to prepare a fresh

merit list after excluding such candidates. As a consequence, the

writ petitions forming Group ‘B’ were dismissed.

1.1.Since all the appeals arise from the same common judgment

and the principal controversy is common, D.B. Special Appeal Writ

[2026:RJ-JD:42855-DB] (33 of 49) [SAW-675/2025]

No.675/2025, Rajasthan Public Service Commission v. Durga Ram

& Ors., is taken as the lead case. The factual matrix and rival

submissions are being noticed therefrom, and the decision

rendered in the lead appeal shall govern the connected appeals.

1.2.The appellant in the lead appeal has claimed the following

relief:

“It is, therefore, in the instant facts and circumstances it

is humbly prayed before this Hon’ble Court that:

1.It may be pleased to allow the present Special

Appeal and be pleased to quash and set aside the

impugned judgment and common order dated

09.01.2025 passed in S.B. Civil Writ Petition No.

17266/2024 titled as Durga & Ors. v. State of

Rajasthan & Ors., and other connected petitions by

the Ld. Single Judge for having been passed against

the settled principles of law and in dissonance with

the settled law as laid down by the Hon’ble Supreme

Court and the writ petition of the original petitioners

may kindly be ordered to be dismissed, in the

interest of justice.

2.And/Or, Pass any other order that this Court may

deem fit in favour of the Appellant in the interest of

justice, equity and good conscience.”

1.3. The lead appeal is accompanied by an application under

Section 5 of the Limitation Act, 1963 seeking condonation of 13

days’ delay in filing the appeal. The material placed on record also

reflects that D.B. Special Appeal Writ No.126/2025 had earlier

been preferred at the Jaipur Bench against the same common

judgment. By order dated 07.03.2025, the direction for revision of

the select list was kept in abeyance and, to protect the interests of

[2026:RJ-JD:42855-DB] (34 of 49) [SAW-675/2025]

the writ petitioners covered by the common judgment, the

Commission and the State Government were directed not to fill up

43 posts without leave of the Court.

1.4.The connected appeals thereafter came to be heard together

with the lead appeal.

2. Brief facts of the case are that the Rajasthan Public Service

Commission issued advertisement dated 22.10.2019 inviting

applications for recruitment to 900 posts of Veterinary Officer

under the Rajasthan Animal Husbandry Service Rules, 1963

(hereinafter referred to as “the Rules of 1963”). The prescribed

qualification included a Bachelor's Degree in Veterinary Science

and Animal Husbandry or its equivalent from a recognised

University together with the other qualifications prescribed under

the Rules.

2.1. Rule 11 of the Rules of 1963 contained a proviso enabling a

person who had appeared or was appearing in the Final Year

Examination of the course constituting the requisite educational

qualification to apply, subject to production of proof of acquisition

of the requisite educational qualification at the stage prescribed

therein. Where the selection was through written examination and

interview, such proof was required to be produced before

appearing in the interview.

2.2. The Commission thereafter conducted a shortlisting test on

02.08.2020 and declared the shortlisting result on 26.11.2020.

Litigation concerning other aspects of the same recruitment had

already commenced. The material on record shows that an earlier

[2026:RJ-JD:42855-DB] (35 of 49) [SAW-675/2025]

round travelled through a Division Bench of this Court and

thereafter before the Hon’ble Supreme Court. The Hon’ble

Supreme Court initially permitted the interviews to proceed while

restricting appointments and subsequently, by order dated

31.05.2024, permitted declaration of the result and issuance of

appointment letters, expressly making the appointments subject

to the outcome of the pending proceedings and clarifying that no

equity could be claimed on that basis.

2.3. The controversy relevant for the present batch arose when

candidates who had been admitted to or were pursuing the Final

Year of the B.V.Sc. & A.H. course, but who had neither appeared in

the Final Year Examination nor submitted the examination form for

such examination by the last date of applications, were treated by

the Commission as eligible. The writ petitioners forming Group ‘A’

questioned their inclusion in the selection. The candidates forming

Group ‘B’, whose candidature would be affected by acceptance of

the challenge, sought protection of their participation and

selection.

2.4. By the impugned common judgment, it was held that the

expression “has appeared or is appearing in the Final Year

Examination” could not be equated with mere admission to or

pursuit of the Final Year of the course. The impugned judgment

treated submission of the Final Year examination form and deposit

of the requisite examination fee as the objective stage from which

a candidate could be regarded as being in the process of

appearing in such examination. It was accordingly held that

[2026:RJ-JD:42855-DB] (36 of 49) [SAW-675/2025]

candidates who had merely entered the Final Year but had neither

appeared in the Final Year Examination nor submitted the

examination form by 24.11.2019 were not eligible under the

proviso to Rule 11.

3. Learned counsel appearing for the Rajasthan Public Service

Commission submitted that the impugned judgment had

introduced an eligibility criterion which was not expressly

contained in Rule 11. It was submitted that Rule 11 did not

require submission of the Final Year examination form or deposit

of examination fee by the last date of application as an

independent condition of eligibility.

3.1. Learned counsel submitted that the expression “appeared or

is appearing in the final year examination” had to be understood

in the context of the academic structure of the B.V.Sc. & A.H.

course. Attention was drawn to the changes made under the

Veterinary Council of India Minimum Standards of Veterinary

Education Regulations, 2016 as compared with the earlier

academic structure. It was urged that the course structure had

materially changed and, therefore, the earlier decisions concerning

preceding recruitments could not mechanically govern the present

recruitment.

3.2. It was further submitted that the advertisement itself

permitted candidates appearing in the Final Year of the requisite

educational qualification to apply, subject to their furnishing proof

of acquisition of the complete educational qualification before the

interview. According to learned counsel, the substantive

[2026:RJ-JD:42855-DB] (37 of 49) [SAW-675/2025]

requirement was therefore acquisition of the prescribed

qualification by the stage of interview, and a candidate who

fulfilled such condition ought not to be excluded merely because

the examination form had not been submitted by the last date of

applications.

3.3. Learned counsel further urged that Rule 19 vested the

Commission with the authority to scrutinise applications and

determine eligibility. It was contended that the Commission had

adopted a uniform interpretation and that judicial review could not

be employed to substitute an additional eligibility condition for the

one prescribed by the recruiting authority.

3.4. It was also submitted that Universities follow different

practices regarding examination forms and examination fees and

that adoption of such a criterion could result in differential

treatment between otherwise similarly situated candidates.

3.5. Learned counsel further questioned the treatment of the Hindi

stipulation contained in the advertisement. It was submitted that

the impugned judgment had proceeded on the premise that there

was an inadvertent omission in the advertisement and had

thereby reconstructed the condition in a manner not warranted by

its language.

3.6. Learned counsel appearing for the candidate-appellants

whose candidature or selection stood affected substantially

adopted the aforesaid submissions and urged that they had

acquired the prescribed educational qualification before the stage

[2026:RJ-JD:42855-DB] (38 of 49) [SAW-675/2025]

stipulated for interview and ought not to be displaced from the

selection.

3.7. Reliance was also placed upon Maharashtra Public Service

Commission v. Sandeep Shriram Warade , (2019) 6 SCC 362, for

the proposition that prescription and determination of eligibility

essentially lie within the domain of the employer and that the

Court cannot recast the conditions of recruitment by interpretative

rewriting.

3.8. Further reliance was also placed upon the following

judgments:

(a) RPSC, Ajmer Vs. Dr. Rama Singh Chundawat (D.B. Special

Appeal (Writ) No.570/2013 & other connected matters, decided by

this Hon’ble Court at Jaipur Bench on 11.02.2016);

4. Per contra, learned counsel appearing for the contesting private

respondents/original writ petitioners submitted that the language

of Rule 11 was clear. It was urged that the Rule did not use the

expression “studying in the Final Year” or “admitted to the Final

Year”, but specifically used the expression “has appeared or is

appearing in the Final Year Examination”.

4.1. Learned counsel submitted that the proviso to Rule 11

constituted a limited relaxation from the ordinary requirement of

possessing the complete qualification at the time of applying and

could be invoked only by candidates who fell within the class

expressly identified therein. It was urged that acquisition of the

[2026:RJ-JD:42855-DB] (41 of 49) [SAW-675/2025]

complete qualification before interview constituted a subsequent

requirement and could not dispense with the anterior requirement

of being a candidate who had appeared or was appearing in the

Final Year Examination on the relevant date.

4.2. Learned counsel further submitted that submission of an

examination form was not treated by the impugned judgment as a

separate educational qualification but merely as objective

evidence that the candidate had crossed the stage of being a

student of the Final Year and had entered the process of appearing

in the Final Year Examination.

4.3.Reliance was placed upon the earlier decisions of this Court

in Rameshwar Prasad Choudhary and Manoj Kumar and upon the

Division Bench judgment dated 25.08.2017 in the appeal arising

from Manoj Kumar, wherein the same statutory expression was

considered in the context of earlier recruitment to the post of

Veterinary Officer. It was submitted that the statutory Rule had

remained unchanged. The impugned judgment also noticed and

relied upon those decisions.

4.4. It was further submitted that any ambiguity or drafting

deficiency in the advertisement could not override the statutory

Rules. The advertisement itself referred candidates to the Rules of

1963 and, therefore, eligibility had necessarily to be determined

under Rule 11.

4.5. On the objection concerning delay and acquiescence, learned

counsel submitted that the writ petitioners were not questioning a

recruitment condition which had operated against them after they

[2026:RJ-JD:42855-DB] (42 of 49) [SAW-675/2025]

had participated in the process; rather, their grievance was

against the Commission's subsequent action of including persons

who, according to them, did not satisfy Rule 11. It was therefore

urged that the cause for challenge arose upon such inclusion in

the select list.

4.6. In support of such submissions, reliance has been placed on

the following judgments:

(a) Manoj Kumar & Ors. Vs. State & Ors. (D.B. Special Appeal

(Writ) No.858/2016, decided by this Hon’ble Court on

28.08.2017;

(b) Rameshwar Choudhary Vs. State of Rajasthan & Anr. (D.B.

(e) The State of Rajasthan & Anr. Vs. Anju Rini Saini (Civil Appeal

No.872/2022, decided by Hon’ble Supreme Court on 02.02.2022;

and

(f) RPSC Vs. Lavanshu Sankhla & Ors. (Civil Appeal No.____of

2026 @ Special Leave Petition (Civil) No.32964 of 2025) & other

connected matters, decided by Hon’ble Supreme Court on

04.05.2026.

5. Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the material

available on record.

[2026:RJ-JD:42855-DB] (43 of 49) [SAW-675/2025]

5.1. The principal question requiring consideration is whether a

person who was merely admitted to or pursuing the Final Year of

the B.V.Sc. & A.H. course, but had neither appeared in nor

reached the stage of appearing in the Final Year Examination by

24.11.2019, could claim the benefit of the proviso to Rule 11

merely because the requisite educational qualification was

subsequently acquired before the interview.

5.2. Rule 11, insofar as relevant, reads as under:

“11. Academic and Technical Qualifications:- A candidate

for direct recruitment to the post specified in the

Schedule shall possess (1) the qualifications given in

Column 4 of the Schedule, and

(2) Working knowledge of Hindi written in Devnagri Script

and knowledge of Rajasthani culture.

Provided that the person who has appeared or is

appearing in the final year examination of the course

which is the requisite educational qualification for the

post as mentioned in the rules or schedule for direct

recruitment, shall be eligible to apply for the post but he/

she shall have to submit proof of having acquired the

requisite educational qualification to the appropriate

selection agency:-

(i) before appearing in the main examination, where

selection is made through two stages of written

examination and interview;

(ii) before appearing in interview where selection is made

through written examination and interview;

(iii) before appearing in the written examination or

interview where selection is made through only written

examination or only interview, as the case may be.”

[2026:RJ-JD:42855-DB] (44 of 49) [SAW-675/2025]

5.3. This Court finds that the proviso contemplates two distinct

stages.

5.3.1. The first determines who is entitled to apply despite not

yet possessing the completed educational qualification. For

obtaining such benefit, the candidate must be a person who “has

appeared or is appearing in the final year examination”.

5.3.2. The second determines the stage by which such

candidate must produce proof that the complete educational

qualification has subsequently been acquired.

The latter requirement does not obliterate the former.

5.4. This Court observes that acceptance of the construction urged

by the appellants would result in replacing the expression “is

appearing in the Final Year Examination” with the materially wider

expression “is studying in the Final Year”.

The Rule does not employ the latter expression.

The words “Final Year Examination” have a definite statutory

significance and cannot be rendered redundant while interpreting

the proviso.

5.5. This Court further observes that the impugned judgment

cannot fairly be understood as prescribing the filing of an

examination form or payment of examination fee as a new

educational qualification. The question before the Court was

whether a candidate who had merely entered the Final Year could

nevertheless be described as one who “is appearing in the Final

Year Examination”.

[2026:RJ-JD:42855-DB] (45 of 49) [SAW-675/2025]

5.5.1. In that context, submission of the examination form and

deposit of the examination fee were treated as objective indicia

showing that a candidate had crossed the stage of merely

pursuing the Final Year and had entered the process relating to

the ensuing Final Year Examination.

5.5.2. In the present controversy, the exclusion was confined to

candidates who had neither actually appeared in the Final Year

Examination nor even submitted the examination form by the

relevant date. The impugned judgment therefore did not

substitute a different educational qualification for the one

prescribed by Rule 11; it applied the statutory expression to the

factual stage reached by the candidates.

5.6. The distinction assumes further significance because the

proviso is itself an exception to the ordinary requirement of

possessing the prescribed educational qualification. The relaxation

cannot be extended beyond the class identified by the Rule. A

candidate who does not satisfy the first limb cannot invoke the

second limb merely because he or she subsequently completed

the qualification before the interview.

5.7. The contention based upon the changed course structure

under the Regulations of 2016 also does not persuade this Court

to adopt a construction contrary to the language of Rule 11. The

academic structure may have changed, but Rule 11 was not

correspondingly amended so as to replace “appeared or is

appearing in the Final Year Examination” with “admitted to or

studying in the Final Year”.

[2026:RJ-JD:42855-DB] (46 of 49) [SAW-675/2025]

5.7.1. If the altered academic regime has rendered the

existing statutory formulation inappropriate for future

recruitments, the matter lies within the domain of the competent

rule-making authority. The recruiting agency cannot, through

administrative interpretation, alter the class of candidates whom

the statutory proviso makes eligible.

5.8. The latest reiteration of the governing principle is found in

Md. Firoz Mansuri & Ors. v. State of Bihar & Ors. , 2026 INSC

68. In paragraph 59, the Hon'ble Supreme Court observed:

“Courts cannot rewrite service rules, determine

equivalence of qualifications, or substitute their own

assessment for that of the employer.”

The same paragraph recognises the employer's domain in

determining qualifications while making it clear that such authority

cannot be exercised arbitrarily.

5.9. The aforesaid principle does not assist the appellants in the

manner suggested. This Court is not prescribing a qualification

which the employer ought to have prescribed. The qualification

and the statutory relaxation already stand prescribed by Rule 11.

The judicial inquiry is only whether the Commission's application

of that Rule remained within its text. This Court finds that

enlarging “appeared or is appearing in the Final Year Examination”

so as to include every person merely admitted to the Final Year

would itself amount to altering the statutory condition.

5.10. Reliance upon Maharashtra Public Service Commission

v. Sandeep Shriram Warade (supra) , also does not alter the

[2026:RJ-JD:42855-DB] (47 of 49) [SAW-675/2025]

conclusion. The principle laid down therein is that courts cannot,

by interpretative rewriting, substitute their own eligibility

requirements where the Rules and advertisement are clear.

Applied to the present case, the said principle requires fidelity to

Rule 11. The Commission's domain under Rule 19 cannot extend

to giving the proviso a meaning which removes the words “Final

Year Examination” from practical operation.

5.11. This Court further finds that Rule 19, which entrusts scrutiny

of applications to the Commission and accords finality to its

decision concerning eligibility, has to operate subject to the

statutory qualifications prescribed by the Rules themselves. The

power to scrutinise eligibility is not a power to alter eligibility.

5.12. The earlier decisions in Rameshwar Prasad Choudhary

(supra), including the Division Bench judgment dated

25.08.2017, were also appropriately noticed in the impugned

judgment. Those decisions arose in an earlier academic setting,

and the factual distinction urged by the appellants has been

considered. Nevertheless, the statutory proposition for which

those decisions were noticed remains relevant: mere progression

in the academic course is not equivalent to having appeared or

being in the process of appearing in the Final Year Examination

where the governing Rule specifically uses the latter expression.

5.13. This Court also finds no reason to interfere merely because

the Hindi stipulation in the advertisement was not happily worded.

The decisive source of eligibility is the statutory Rule. Where the

[2026:RJ-JD:42855-DB] (48 of 49) [SAW-675/2025]

advertisement admits of a construction inconsistent with Rule 11,

the Rule must prevail.

5.13.1. It is therefore unnecessary for this Court to approve every

expression employed in the impugned judgment concerning the

drafting of the advertisement. The ultimate conclusion can be

sustained on the plain language of Rule 11 itself.

5.14. The plea concerning delay and acquiescence also does not

warrant interference. The contesting writ petitioners were not

seeking to avoid a condition of recruitment after having

unsuccessfully participated under it. Their grievance was directed

against the Commission's action of treating other candidates as

eligible in a manner which, according to them, was contrary to

Rule 11. The impugned judgment found that the cause of action

arose when such candidates were included in the select list. The

distinction drawn from cases relating to participation in a selection

followed by a challenge to the procedure of selection is therefore

well founded.

5.15. The plea of equity on behalf of candidates who subsequently

came to be selected or appointed also cannot override the

statutory requirement. The order dated 31.05.2024 of the Hon'ble

Supreme Court, as reproduced in the record, expressly permitted

declaration of result and issuance of appointment letters subject

to the outcome of the pending proceedings , with a further

direction that the selected candidates were to be notified that they

would not be entitled to claim equity on that ground. Thus, the

[2026:RJ-JD:42855-DB] (49 of 49) [SAW-675/2025]

appointments made during pendency of the litigation were always

subject to the adjudication of eligibility.

5.16. On consideration of the entire matter, this Court finds that

the essential conclusion recorded in the impugned judgment is

consistent with Rule 11. A candidate merely pursuing the Final

Year, who had neither appeared in the Final Year Examination nor

reached the stage reflected by submission of the Final Year

examination form by the last date of applications, could not claim

the statutory relaxation merely because the complete educational

qualification was acquired subsequently before the interview.

5.17. This Court accordingly finds no ground warranting

interference with the impugned common judgment in exercise of

the intra-court appellate jurisdiction.

6.1. D.B. Special Appeal Writ No.675/2025 is dismissed. The

common judgment dated 09.01.2025 is affirmed.

6.2. Since the connected appeals arise from the same common

judgment and the common question raised therein stands

concluded by the determination made in the lead appeal, as

indicated above, the rest of the instant appeals are also

dismissed in terms of the present judgment.

6.3. All pending applications, if any, stand disposed of.

Rajasthan High Court Dismisses Appeals in Veterinary Officer Recruitment: Upholds Strict Eligibility for Final Year Candidates

In a significant ruling concerning Rajasthan Veterinary Officer Recruitment, the High Court of Judicature for Rajasthan at Jodhpur, in D.B. Special Appeal Writ No. 675/2025 (and connected matters), has dismissed appeals against a common judgment that quashed the merit list to the extent it included candidates not meeting strict eligibility criteria. This pivotal decision clarifies the interpretation of Eligibility Criteria for Government Jobs, specifically for those 'appearing in the final year examination.' The judgment, now accessible on CaseOn, serves as a crucial reference for understanding the nuances of statutory interpretation in public employment.

A Deep Dive into the Rajasthan Veterinary Officer Recruitment Case

Issue Presented

The central legal question before the High Court was whether candidates who were merely admitted to or pursuing the Final Year of the B.V.Sc. & A.H. course, but had not physically appeared in the Final Year Examination or submitted their examination forms by the application deadline (24.11.2019), could be considered eligible under the proviso to Rule 11 of the Rajasthan Animal Husbandry Service Rules, 1963. The challenge was mounted against the Rajasthan Public Service Commission's (RPSC) inclusion of such candidates, leading to two groups of writ petitions: Group 'A' challenging the inclusion and Group 'B' seeking protection for those included.

Rule Applied

The High Court primarily relied on Rule 11 of the Rajasthan Animal Husbandry Service Rules, 1963, which outlines the academic and technical qualifications. The crucial proviso to Rule 11 allows a person who 'has appeared or is appearing in the final year examination' of the requisite educational qualification to apply. However, such a candidate must submit proof of acquiring the qualification before the interview. The court also considered precedents like Rameshwar Prasad Choudhary and Manoj Kumar, which interpreted similar statutory expressions in prior recruitments. Key legal principles emphasized included the domain of the employer in prescribing eligibility and the court's limited role in interpretation, as reiterated in Maharashtra Public Service Commission v. Sandeep Shriram Warade.

For legal professionals and students grappling with the intricacies of such rulings, CaseOn.in offers 2-minute audio briefs that provide concise, expert analysis of these specific judgments, making complex legal interpretations readily understandable and accessible.

Analysis of the Court's Decision

The Court meticulously dissected the proviso to Rule 11, identifying two distinct conditions: first, eligibility to apply based on having 'appeared or is appearing in the final year examination,' and second, the requirement to produce proof of qualification later. The High Court firmly rejected the appellant's argument to equate 'is appearing in the final year examination' with simply 'studying in' or 'admitted to' the final year. It underscored that the term 'Final Year Examination' carries specific statutory weight and cannot be diluted.

The submission of examination forms and fees was deemed an 'objective indicia' that a candidate had moved beyond merely pursuing the final year and had actively entered the process of appearing in the examination. This wasn't construed as adding a new qualification but rather defining the factual stage implied by the statutory language.

Addressing the argument about changes in academic structure under the Veterinary Council of India Minimum Standards of Veterinary Education Regulations, 2016, the Court noted that while the course structure might have changed, Rule 11 itself had not been amended. Therefore, administrative interpretations could not override or alter the statutory eligibility criteria. The court affirmed that Rule 19, which gives the RPSC authority to scrutinize applications, does not grant it the power to redefine or alter statutory eligibility.

Furthermore, the Court dismissed arguments of delay and acquiescence, reasoning that the writ petitioners were not challenging a condition they had participated under, but rather the RPSC's subsequent action of including candidates who, in their view, were ineligible under Rule 11. The cause of action, therefore, arose from the inclusion in the select list. The plea for equity on behalf of selected candidates was also rejected, particularly in light of the Hon'ble Supreme Court's order of 31.05.2024, which explicitly permitted declarations and appointments subject to the outcome of the pending proceedings and clarified that no equity could be claimed.

Conclusion

In light of the detailed analysis, the High Court concluded that its essential finding was consistent with Rule 11. Candidates who were merely pursuing the Final Year, but had neither appeared in the Final Year Examination nor submitted their examination forms by the last date of applications, could not avail the statutory relaxation. Such individuals did not satisfy the first limb of the proviso to Rule 11, regardless of whether they subsequently acquired the full educational qualification before the interview. Consequently, D.B. Special Appeal Writ No.675/2025 and all connected appeals were dismissed, affirming the common judgment dated 09.01.2025, which directed the RPSC to prepare a fresh merit list after excluding such ineligible candidates.

Final Summary of the Judgment

The Rajasthan High Court’s ruling reinforces the principle of strict statutory interpretation in recruitment processes. It holds that for candidates claiming eligibility under a 'final year appearing' clause, mere admission or study in the final year is insufficient. There must be an objective action, such as submitting an examination form, signifying active participation in the final year examination process by the application deadline. The judgment prevents administrative bodies from reinterpreting clear statutory language and underscores that equity cannot override specific legal requirements, especially when appointments were made subject to ongoing litigation.

Why This Judgment is Essential for Lawyers and Students

This judgment is a crucial read for:

  • Lawyers: It provides a strong precedent on the interpretation of 'appearing candidate' clauses in service rules, highlights the limitations of administrative interpretation, and reinforces the principle that statutory provisions prevail over ambiguous advertisement clauses. It also offers insights into challenging recruitment results based on eligibility discrepancies.
  • Law Students: This case serves as an excellent example of applying the rules of statutory interpretation, particularly the importance of adhering to the plain language of a statute. It demonstrates how courts differentiate between 'studying in' and 'appearing in' an examination and the implications of this distinction for public employment law.
