HIGH COURT OF RAJASTHAN (JODHPUR BENCH)
JUSTICE DINESH MEHTA, J
Jayprakash Purohit – Appellant
Versus
State of Rajasthan – Respondent
ORDER :
DINESH MEHTA, J.
1. Mr. J.S. Bhaleria, learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the issue involved in the present writ petition is squarely covered by the judgment dated 17.02.2025 passed by this Court in S.B. Civil Writ Petition No.1457/2025 ( Manish Vyas Vs. The State of Rajasthan & Ors).
2. Mr. Kuldeep Vaishnav, learned counsel for the respondents is not in a position to dispute the aforesaid position of facts and law.
3. In the case of Manish Vyas (supra), this Court has observed thus:-
“24. True it is, that the circular dated 19.08.2010 mentions that a candidate has to clear type test on computer but the subsequent circular dated 21.09.2010 which has been issued within a period of one month of the earlier circular, makes it clear that the stipulation made in the circular dated 19.08.2010 so far as giving ‘type test of computer’ is concerned, was erroneous. If the circulars of 19.08.2010 and 21.09.2010 are read carefully, it is apparent that they make a specific reference to the Rules of 1999 , so also the notification dated 05.07.2010 by which the Rules of 1999 came to be amended.
25. This Court is, therefore, clearly of the view that after the amendment was brought
The amended Rules of 1999 clarify that the educational qualification for LDC includes senior secondary education and computer proficiency, removing the type test requirement.
The court ruled that amendments to the qualification rules for LDCs eliminate the requirement for a type test for compassionate appointees who have acquired necessary computer proficiency.
Point of Law : Division Bench has rightly set aside action of the FCI in rejecting case of original writ petitioner and has rightly directed the FCI to consider the case of original writ petitioner f....
Seniorities should be computed based on initial appointment dates, regardless of subsequent qualification delays.
Seniority is to be computed from the initial appointment date despite conditions regarding qualifications in the rules.
The central legal point established is the mandatory consideration of computer qualification obtained in Graduation/B.Ed for LDC recruitment 2013, as specified in the circular dated 26.09.2018.
