    Case Summary: CWJC/8900/2025 Decision: The Patna High Court dismissed Deepak Jha's writ petition challenging his rejection for the Junior Engineer (Civil) position. Key Reasoning: The court found that Swami Vivekanand University was not authorized to issue diplomas prior to 2017-2018. Since the petitioner obtained his diploma for the 2014-2017 session before the university was competent to grant such degrees, the court questioned the legitimacy of his qualification and upheld the Bihar Technical Service Commission's rejection of his candidacy, despite his claim of scoring above the EWS category cutoff marks. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
