    Hon'ble Shri Justice Amitendra Kishore PrasadView PDF

    The High Court of Chhattisgarh at Bilaspur dismissed three consolidated writ petitions challenging a recruitment process for Family Court positions, holding that procedural modifications in the examination (reducing questions from 50 to 25 while maintaining total marks) did not cause demonstrable prejudice and were applied uniformly to all candidates. The Court ruled that the petitioners, having voluntarily participated in the selection without prior objection, were precluded from challenging the process after being unsuccessful under the doctrines of waiver and estoppel, and the petitions were further defective for failing to implead the successfully selected candidates as necessary parties.
