This Review Application has been filed to review the order of this Court dated 02.07.2024 made in W.P. (MD). No.14191 of 2024.

2.The Writ Petition has been filed to issue a writ of declaration to declare the Certificate Verification published by the second respondent therein dated 26.05.2024 in respect of Direct Recruitment to the post of Graduate Teachers Block Resource Teacher Educators BRTE – 2023 in Botany Subject under Backward Class (Women) (Special Education) Category as illegal and consequently to direct the respondents to select and appoint the petitioner in the above category as per the Notification No.03/2023, dated 25.10.2023 in Addendum Notification No.03A/2023, dated 15.11.2023.

3.While passing the order in the Writ Petition on 02.07.2024, this Court has made the following observations:-

6. The learned Standing Counsel for the Teacher Recruitment Board submitted that the post, to which the petitioner seeks to be appointed is Graduate Teacher (IEDSS)

under B.Ed., (Special Education) category. However, the petitioner had applied under the category of B.Ed., General. Hence, she was considered under that category.

7.The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that only in the Addendum Notification, the Special Education Posts were mentioned and hence, the petitioner was not able to upload the required certificates even though she possesses the qualification in P.G.Diploma in Special Education (Multiple Disability: Physical & Neurological).

8.The learned Standing Counsel for the Board submitted that though in the main notification, the Special Education Post was not mentioned, in the addendum, it is stated that the candidates who opted to apply under B.Ed., Special Education, were given an opportunity, to upload the certificates for Special Education with edit option in the online portal from 14.12.2023 to 15.12.2023. The petitioner without doing so, now claims that she is eligible for the post of B.Ed., (Special Education).

9.It is further submitted that only after the addendum was issued, the petitioner had made application to the said post under B.Ed., category. Hence, the petitioner has got an opportunity to upload the certificates for special education even at the time he applied to the said post. Though the petitioner has got PG Diploma in Special Education (Multiple Disability: Physical & Neurological) approved under the Rehabilitation Council of India, the petitioner was not qualified for the post of Graduate Teacher (IEDSS), as she had opted to apply under B.Ed., Degree category. Further, as per the notification dated 25.10.2023, the special course obtained by the petitioner is not the prescribed course to be considered for the post of Graduate Teacher (IEDSS).

10.It is learnt from the records that due to the addendum, the Board has provided with edit option from 14.12.2023 to 15.12.2023 to make correction in the application already made in pursuant to the original notification. However, the petitioner failed to do so.
