For the Appellant/s : M/s Sanjeet Kumar & Binay Kant Mani Tripathi, Advs For the Respondent/s : M/s Rajesh Kumar Verma, Siddhartha Prasad, Nishi Nath Ojha, Rajan Ghoshrave, Ramjeet Kumar Pandey, Anshay Bahadur Mathur, Sanjay Singh Thakur, Binod Kr Sinha, Advocates CORAM: HON'BLE MR JUSTICE NAVANITI PRASAD SINGH And HON'BLE JUSTICE SMT NILU AGRAWAL ORAL JUDGMENT (Per: HONOURABLE MR JUSTICE NAVANITI PRASAD SINGH) Date: 15-10-2015 We heard the learned counsel for the appellants yesterday and indicated the order which we had proposed to pass. As the learned
counsel wanted some time to consider the matter, the matter was adjourned for today. We have heard the learned counsel today also. 2 The situation is that the Institute of Banking Personnel Selection (for short, IBPS) had been assigned with the role of making selection for Probationary Officers in respect of 19 Public Sector Banks. The appellants, who were the writ petitioners, are concerned with the second such Common Written Examination (for short, CWE). With various grievances, they came to the Court and filed the writ petition. The learned Single Judge dismissed the writ petition. The writ petitioners then filed this intra-Court appeal. 3 While the appeal was pending, the second combined examination and the selection therein were concluded.
Thereafter, the third combined examination was held in which some of the appellants appeared and remained unsuccessful. Then there was the 04th combined examination. Then that process being over, the 05th combined examination was taken up which is now in process. 4 The appellants did not obtain any order from this Court in appeal protecting their rights. Much water has flown to Ganga since then. In these facts, it would now be wholly inappropriate for us to interfere and set the clock back. The question being raised in this appeal would, thus, be of academic nature with no substantive relief to the appellants.
5 We, therefore, are not inclined to interfere in the matter though leaving questions of law open to be taken in an appropriate forum as and when moved.
6 The appeal stands disposed of.
