Telangana High Court’s verdict
The Chief Minister’s message comes after the Telangana High Court on Thursday quashed a single bench judgement that ordered the re-evaluation or reconduct of the Telangana Public Service Commission (TGPSC) Group 1 mains examination.
The TGPSC conducted the examinations from October 21 to 27, 2024, to fill 563 vacancies in the state. At least 31,383 candidates had applied for the exams and around 30,000 candidates appeared for them. However, aspirants led by K Parshuramulu from Siddipet, filed a petition alleging discrepancies in the evaluation of the answer sheets.
A division bench of Chief Justice Aparesh Kumar Singh and Justice GM Mohiuddin, dismissed another appeal filed by unsuccessful candidates seeking reexamination.
The High Court’s judgement will pave the way for the appointment of the candidates who qualified the examinations.
