    Case Summary: CWPOA No.4752/2020 The High Court of Himachal Pradesh dismissed Shanti Lal's petition challenging HRTC's denial of appointment as a Transport Multi Purpose Assistant (TMPA) under sports quota. Though the petitioner was shortlisted after the written exam, HRTC rejected his candidacy during document verification, finding he lacked the required credentials—having participated only in district and state-level sports, not national-level competitions as mandated by the 2002 State Government Notification. The court held that selection criteria validly set by the government must be followed and candidates have no vested right to appointment merely from being shortlisted.
