Case History
Summary of C.A. No. 003581/2001 (K. Pradeep Kumar v. Kerala Public Service Commission) The Supreme Court dismissed the appellants' challenges to their candidature rejections for Junior Health Inspector positions. The Court upheld the Kerala Public Service Commission's restrictions prohibiting candidates from applying to more than one district in a single notification, finding the restriction constitutionally valid and not violative of Articles 14 and 16. The rejections were justified on two independent grounds: candidates' violation of the explicit district-application restriction and false declarations in application forms claiming single-district applications when multiple were submitted.
