Telangana HC Stays Group-I Mains Re-evaluation Order as Provisional Hiring Proceeds

Any appointments will hinge on writ appeals set for detailed hearing in mid-October with submissions due October 10.

Overview

  • A Division Bench led by Chief Justice Aparesh Kumar Singh and Justice G. M. Mohiuddin issued an interim suspension of the single judge’s September 9 directions on the Group‑I mains.
  • The Telangana Public Service Commission may move ahead with appointments for 563 posts, but every step will remain subject to the final outcome of the writ appeals.
  • TGPSC posted hall‑ticket numbers of 562 provisionally selected candidates and withheld one vacancy in line with a separate High Court order.
  • The single judge had set aside the final marks and general ranking lists and directed manual re‑evaluation using the Supreme Court’s Sanjay Singh moderation method or a fresh Mains within eight months.
  • After hearing both sides on alleged irregularities versus the Commission’s claim of no mass malpractice, the Bench declined a status quo request and listed the appeals for October 15–16 with written briefs due by October 10.
