Legal battle over GATE norm for 621 AEE posts reaches SC
CUTTACK: The Supreme Court has admitted a special leave petition (SLP) challenging the January 15 Orissa High Court order regarding the process of selection of candidates for 621 posts of assistant executive engineers (AEEs) by the Odisha Public Service Commission (OPSC), while refusing to grant a stay on the recruitment process. The OPSC had in an advertisement for 2023-24 invited applications for posts of AEEs in civil (580) and mechanical (41) branches on December 28, 2023, with the last date of submission being February 26, 2024. Under the Odisha Engineering Service (Methods of Recruitment and Conditions of Service) Amendment Rules, 2023, the objective written test was replaced by selection on the basis of the highest of the valid Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering (GATE) score obtained by the candidates in the three years preceding the date of advertisement (including the year of advertisement). On January 15, 2025, the high court, acting on a batch of petitions, directed the OPSC to extend the application deadline to enable candidates who were otherwise eligible by age and educational qualification as per the original cut-off date to apply after appearing in the GATE examination. Complying with the direction, OPSC on April 11, 2025, notified rescheduled dates allowing submission of applications for the posts from April 22 to May 8.

SC refuses to stay recruitment of 621 assistant executive engineers in state
1 2 3 Cuttack: The Supreme Court has refused to stay the recruitment process for 621 assistant executive engineer (AEE) posts by the Odisha Public Service Commission (OPSC), even as it admitted a special leave petition (SLP) challenging a Jan 15 order by the Orissa high court related to the case. The recruitment advertisement, published on Dec 28, 2023, for 580 civil and 41 mechanical AEE posts, followed the Odisha Engineering Service (Methods of Recruitment and Conditions of Service) Amendment Rules, 2023. The rules replaced the traditional written test with selection based on the highest valid GATE score from the preceding three years, including the year of advertisement. Following the HC's Jan 15 directive, OPSC extended the application deadline to May 8, allowing otherwise eligible candidates to apply after appearing in GATE. However, Ritesh Kumar Mohapatra challenged the HC order in the SC via an SLP. On June 3, an SC bench comprising Justices Prashant Kumar Mishra and Augustine George Masih issued notice to the Odisha govt returnable in the week beginning Aug 11 but declined to halt the recruitment process. Meanwhile, a separate batch of petitions filed in the HC has questioned the revised application window, arguing it deprived aspirants of a chance to appear in GATE 2025. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo The petitioners claimed that by the time the HC order was issued in Jan, GATE 2025 registration had already closed (Sept/Oct 2024), preventing them from availing the benefit.
