HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE NYAPATHY VIJAY W.P.Nos.4633 and 15202 of 2024 and 3306, 6148, 6294, 6675, 7618, 7985, 7999, 8001, 9373, 11232 of 2025
COMMON ORDER:
The batch of writ petitions is filed seeking to declare the Notification No.11 of 2023 dated 07.12.2023, issued by Respondent No.2/APPSC, notified for direct recruitment to the posts of Group-II Services as illegal, arbitrary and violative of Articles 14, 15 and 16 of the Constitution of India.
2. As the issue in these writ petitions is common, with the consent of learned counsel, the matters were taken up for hearing and are disposed of by this common order.
3. Before going into the narration of facts, it is necessary to note that interim order seeking stay of all further proceedings pursuant to the impugned notification was sought and a learned single Judge of this Court passed a detailed order on 20.02.2025 refusing interim order in W.P.No.4633 of 2024 and W.P.No.15202 of 2024. Questioning the same, W.A.Nos.160 of 2025 and 217 of 2025 were filed. W.A.No.160 of 2025 was dismissed as withdrawn and no interim orders were passed in W.A.No.217 of 2025.
4. W.P.No.4633 of 2024 is taken up as the lead case and the facts are as under:
Facts of the Case : Petitioner is a graduate in B.Com., and is eligible for consideration for all the posts enumerated in the impugned notification except certain posts that require additional technical qualification. It is pleaded that the impugned notification does not provide equal opportunities to all the applicants in compliance with Article 14 of the Constitution of India on account of irrational fixation of roster points in respect of Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, B.Cs., Women and EWS. It is pleaded that the fixation of the roster in vertical reservation is contrary to the law laid down by the Hon‟ble Supreme Court in the case of R.K.Sabharwal and others v. State of Punjab and others, (1995) 2 SCC 745 and the roster points fixed by APPSC for horizontal reservation do not align with the judgment of the Hon‟ble Supreme Court in Rajesh Kumar Daria v. Rajasthan Public Service Commission and others, (2007) 8 SCC 785 It is pleaded that on account of the incorrect roster points, there would be over-representation of certain categories and under-representation of certain categories, affecting the right to be treated equally.
5. It is also pleaded that as per the judgment of the Hon‟ble Supreme Court in R.K.Sabharwal’s case (1 supra), the reservation in jobs for SC/ST/OBC should apply to posts and not to vacancies. It is further stated that the Government of India had issued an Office Memorandum on 02.07.1997 to bring in the policy of reservation in tune with the judgment of the Hon‟ble Supreme Court referred above. It is stated that the roster has to serve and comply with the percentage of reservation as mentioned in the A.P. State and Subordinate Service Rules, with a maximum ceiling at 50%. It is stated that a tabular statement was extracted in the affidavit calculating the roster on the lines of the model roster issued by the Government of India. A comparison of the impugned roster followed by the model roster was also extracted in the affidavit. It is stated that the reservation should be post-based and not vacancy-based. It is further pleaded that the only way to fix the roster for ensuing recruitment is to take the entire sanctioned strength and first adjust the existing appointments in the roster which is equivalent to the sanctioned strength and then only it would be known whether the representation of social categories in the appointments already done will be known to be in excess or not. It is only after this exercise, the roster points can be fixed in the vacancies.
6. Respondent No.1-State filed its counter, wherein the background of framing of the Andhra Pradesh State and Subordinate Service Rules, 1996 is mentioned. As per Respondent No.1, a One-man Commission was appointed for comprehensive review and examination of the Rules including Rules of General applicability, A.P.State and Subordinate Service Rules and numerous Special Rules pertaining to services of the Government De
