As per case facts, petitioners, appointed as Assistant/Personal Clerks in 2018 and whose services were regularized, faced suspension and later removal from service due to alleged malpractice in OMR sheet ... tampering during the 2017-2018 examination. A CBI investigation recommended their removal. The Commission cancelled their provisional selection and invalidated OMR sheets, while appointing authorities removed them without disciplinary proceedings, relying on the CBI report and government directions. The petitioners appealed, arguing the Commission lacked power after appointment (functus officio) and their removal violated natural justice and service rules. The central legal question was whether the Commission could cancel provisional selection post-regularization and if removal without proper inquiry was valid. Finally, the High Court set aside the cancellation of selection and removal orders, directing reinstatement. It clarified that the Commission was functus officio and that removal must follow service rules with due disciplinary process. The Court also directed the expedition of the criminal trial against the petitioners.
