ORDER

The Text below is only a summarized version of the order pronounced

The selection of the appellant to the post of Chief Technical officer was upheld. SC rejected the
contention of the respondents that appellant had close association with Dr. Roy who was there on
the panel of Selection Committee was rejected as it was found that besides appellant 5 other
candidates along with respondent 1 and 2 were associated with Mr. Roy as Mr. Roy was the director
of Central Food Laboratory where all of them were employed. Further, SC held that appellant had
the desired experience for the post considering the facts of the case.
