    Case Summary: WPC 5242/2024 Decision: The Jharkhand High Court dismissed the writ petition filed by Amit Kumar Singh, a person with disability who sought appointment as a Grade-IV employee (Peon). The court held that since the 2023 recruitment advertisement contained no specific reservation for disabled persons and the appointment process concluded two years prior, it could not issue directions for his appointment. The court reasoned that creating reservation quotas is a policy matter within the government's discretion, not a judicial function. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
