Manipur High Court directs MSPCL and MSPDCL not to give service confirmation to all the OBC candidates till their OBC certificate verification is completed by the competent authority.
The Manipur High Court has ordered MSPCL and MSPDCL to refrain from confirming employment for all OBC candidates till the appropriate authorities has verified their OBC certificates.
On October 30, 2014, 38 Assistant Engineers were appointed in both the corporation. This resulted in the appointment of 10 (ten) OBC candidates in the MSPDCL and 4 (four) candidates in the MSPCL.
A writ petition was filed in the High Court of Manipur before the bench of Hon’ble Justice MV. Muralidaran, requesting that all OBC candidates be denied confirmation until their verifications are completed by the competent authority in consultation with the Creamy Layer Category, and as such, the Hon’ble Court may kindly call for the OBC Certificates of all selected candidates in order to examine whether the appointments made under the OBC category were genuine. And, if the appointments were made in violation of the OBC guidelines, the appointments of all OBC candidates who are not qualified under the guidelines must be quashed and set aside.
The appointments of all the OBC candidates have become doubtful as the certificates have not been furnished by the concerned department while seeking through RTI.
Prior to this, Imphal Times had also written about the illegal hiring of these 38 Assistant Engineers in place of the 25 advertised positions.
