casestatus.in Summary

The Supreme Court disposed of multiple special leave petitions challenging a High Court order that directed a fresh recruitment exercise with supernumerary posts for wrongly excluded candidates due to improper vertical application of Ex-Servicemen reservation. The Court granted the petitioners liberty to file a review petition before the Division Bench within three weeks, with the Division Bench's order stayed during this period, directing the High Court to reconsider the affidavit dated 25.08.2025 regarding three qualifying candidates before deciding on the broader direction to fill all vacancies.
