2019 (5) TMI 437 - HC - Indian LawsSelection process of sports persons for appointment by the Government of India - grievance of the Petitioner is that there cannot be any justifiable reason for not considering his candidature as he fulfills all the parameters - Respondents draws the attention of this Court to the fact that the Petitioner stood at 27th Rank in the 'Mid Field' category. For the three posts in 'Half Line/Mid Field' category, 19 candidates were called for the Personal Interview. Since the Petitioner's Rank was 27, he was not called for the Personal Interview - HELD THAT:- On a careful consideration of the respective contentions, this Court comes to an irresistible conclusion that the Petitioner is not entitled to seek the relief as claimed by him in the present Writ Petition. Further, the shortlisted candidates viz., Karanbir Singh (Sl.No.41) -1st Place in Junior Nationals, 2018, Center Half, was awarded the total marks of 55.5 (46 + 9.5). Similarly, Harmanjit Singh (Sl.No.42) - 1st Place in Junior Nationals, Center Half, was awarded the total marks of 51.5 (42 + 9.5). Likewise, Akshay Hooda (Sl.No.43), 3rd Place in Junior Nationals, 2015, Center Half, secured the total marks of 51 (42 + 9). At the risk of repetition, this Court points out that the Petitioner was awarded a total mark of 34.5 (28 + 6.5) by the Selection Committee, based on the documents furnished by him. In fact, he stood 27th Rank in the 'Mid Field' category. Looking at from any angle, the observations of the Tribunal in negativing the Writ Petitioner/Applicant's relief as sought for in the Original application and the consequent direction issued to the Respondents to inform him of the process adopted for shortlisting including the norms and criteria under which the suitability of the candidate was assessed, based on which, he could not be included in the shortlist of the selected candidates, are without any legal flaw.
