O R D E R
Application for permission to file review petition is granted.
Delay condoned.
This review petition arises out of the order dated 26.07.2021 passed by this
Court in Special Leave Petition (Civil) No.11323 of 2021 which in turn was directed
against the order dated 03.12.2019 passed by the High Court of Judicature at
Allahabad, Lucknow Bench.
In terms of the decision of this Court in State of U.P and others v. Shiv Kumar
Pathak and others, the State Government was granted liberty to fill up the remaining
vacancies in accordance with law and after issuance of fresh advertisement.
Accordingly fresh selection process was initiated.

Reason:
However, grievance was made by the petitioners that the selection undertaken
in pursuance of the earlier Notification dated 07.12.2012 ought to have been taken
2
to logical conclusion. A subsidiary issue was also raised regarding refund of
prescribed fees deposited by the petitioners.
Finding no merit in the substantive submissions raised in support of the
petition, the petition was dismissed on 26.07.2021.
We have gone through the review petition which now raises a submission inter
alia that 95 candidates who had not fulfilled the criteria of 60% for reserved category
and 70% of unreserved category in terms of interim orders issued by this Court, were
wrongly selected.
We have gone through the grounds raised in the review petition and find no
reason to justify interference in this review petition.
This review petition is, therefore, dismissed.
