Advertisement dated 20.12.2017, DSSSB invited applications, inter alia, for the
post of Physical Education Teacher (Post Code = 90/17) with 919 vacancies. On
16.09.2018, written examination was conducted by the DSSSB. On 09.01.2019,
final answer key was uploaded by the DSSSB wherein the answers/options to 5
questions [question Nos. 44, 119, 182, 183 & 200], as given by the DSSSB in
the answer key, were wrong.
22 candidates,
being aggrieved by the aforesaid 5 questions, challenged the same before the
Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT), Principal Bench, New Delhi, by way of 22
separate Original Applications (lead OA No. 580/2019).
Anuj Aggarwal,
Advocate, counsel for the applicants, argued that the candidates/applicants
should not suffer/penalized for giving the right answer. It was also argued
that the text books, published by the Delhi Government itself, shows that the
answers given by the applicants were correct answers/options.
Hon’ble Mr.
Justice L. Narasimha Reddy & Hon’ble Member (A) Mr. Mohd. Jamshed, Central
Administrative Tribunal, Principal Bench, New Delhi, appreciating the
submissions made on behalf of the applicants, directed the DSSSB to refer the
disputed 5 questions to an Expert Committee, which shall give its report within

selection shall be taken by the DSSSB only after the report of Expert Committee
is obtained by the DSSSB.
