HC Reprimands HPSC for Overstepping Recruitment Authority

HC Reprimands HPSC for Overstepping Recruitment Authority

The Punjab and Haryana High Court recently made a big decision about the Haryana Public Service Commission (HPSC).

The court said that the HPSC did something it wasn't supposed to do.

The HPSC rejected a man named Prasoon Sharma for a job because he didn't have enough proof of his past work experience.

But the court said that checking experience proofs is the job of the department that hires people, not the HPSC.

So, the court decided that the HPSC was wrong and canceled its decision.

This means Prasoon Sharma can now be considered for the job again.

The court also said that the HPSC should stick to its own duties and not do things that are meant for other departments.
