Hon'ble Arun Tandon,J.
According to the petitioners the cut of merit fixed at 55% for the S.C. and S.T. candidates in respect of the T.E.T. examination is further liable to be reduced to 50%, in as much as O.B.C. category, which were not provided any such relaxation earlier, have also been provided relaxation of 5%.
I am of the considered opinion that it is for the Appointing Authority/Selecting Authority to determine the cut of merit. In the facts of the case, such cut of merit has been prescribed 5% lower viz. a viz. the general category candidates. No further relaxation can be provided by this Court.
Writ petition is misconceived and the same is dismissed.
