An order cancelling the recruitment process of police sub-inspectors and junior engineers in Jammu and Kashmir over exams being conducted by a blacklisted agency has been put on hold by the High Court.
Overruling a single-judge bench of the same court, two judges allowed the J&K Service Selection Board to go ahead with exams, but stopped it from declaring results till further orders.
On Thursday, the single-judge bench of the High Court pulled up the Jammu and Kashmir administration for allotting a contract to a tainted agency to conduct exams.
The court said the decision to award the contract to M/s Aptech Limited - a blacklisted agency - is "malafide" and that the private agency had received an undue favour.
