stated that an inquiry was conducted into the petitioner's work experience, and the Corporation was unable to verify his work experience certificate. His candidature was, therefore, cancelled. Copies of the inquiry reports dated 21.01.2020, and the decision of the Human Resource Sub-Committee of the Board of Directors of the Corporation, have been placed on record.

4.

In view of the above, learned counsel for the parties submit that the present writ petition may be disposed of, leaving it open to the petitioner to challenge the rejection of his candidature, if he is so advised at this stage.

5.

The writ petition is disposed of, with liberty as aforesaid. 6.

All rights and contentions of the parties remain reserved.
