Advertisement dated 20.12.2017, DSSSB invited applications, inter alia, for the
post of Physical Education Teacher (Post Code = 90/17). 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, 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, Principal Bench, New Delhi, by way of 22 separate
Original Applications [lead OA No. 580/2019].
Anuj Aggarwal,
Tenzing Thinlay Lepcha and Saurabh Ahuja, Advocates, counsels 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 file a
clear reply to all the 5 disputed questions. Hon’ble Bench further observed as
under:-
“It is represented on behalf of the respondents that there is no
likelihood of the finalization of the list at least up to 31.03.2019. Hence, we
do not feel the necessity of passing any interim order at this stage.”
Matter is now listed on
14.03.2019 for hearing.
