WPSS/ 863/ 2026 Hon’ble Manoj Kum ar Tiw ari, J

Mr. Vinay Kumar, Advocate, for the petitioner.

Mr. S.S. Chaudhary, Standing Counsel, for the State.

2. Petitioner participated in a selection for the post of Assistant Teacher, Government Primary School in District Almora and she claimed benefit of reservation available to Other Backward Classes. Learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that petitioner had staked claim for appointment on a post in “other than Science subjects”. Grievance raised by the petitioner in this writ petition is that even though she scored 70.61 quality point marks in the selection, yet she has not

been recommended for appointment.

3. Learned State Counsel was asked to get instructions in the matter. Based on written instructions, received from the O/o District Education Officer, Almora, Mr. S.S. Chaudhary submits that petitioner belongs to OBC category and the last candidate, who was recommended for appointment in “other than Science subjects” in the said category, scored 76.008 quality point marks. Thus learned State Counsel submits that since petitioner is much below in merit, therefore, she does not have any valid claim for selection/appointment. Copy of the written instructions produced in the Court by learned State Counsel is taken on

record.

4. This Court finds substance in the submission made by learned State Counsel. Since petitioner’s quality point marks is much below than the last candidate recommended for appointment in “other than Science subjects” in OBC category, therefore, petitioner does not have any vested right to be recommended for appointment. Writ petition is, accordingly, disposed of by taking the submission made

by learned State Counsel on record.
