There is a clause in the information booklet of Public Service Commission stating that PSC can restrict the no.of candidates for interview on the basis of qualification or experience if the no. of received applications is large and it is not possible or convenient for the PSC to call all applicants for interview.
For a certain post PSC received 40 applications in 2003 and the undersigned was called for interview. For the same post in 2010 PSC received 35 applications out of which 16 were rejected for not having essential qualification, 4 were rejected on the above mentioned clause of information booklet and 15 were interviewed. The undersigned is in group of 4. Having the higher experience than 2003 the undersigned was discarded from the interview in 2010. Is it fair and legally tenable?
