Telangana HC Cancels Group-1 Rankings

Telangana High Court building in Hyderabad, where the verdict on TSPSC Group-1 exams was delivered.

The Telangana High Court delivered a sensational verdict on the TSPSC Group-1 examination. The court directed the cancellation of the previously announced General Rankings List and ordered a fresh evaluation of the mains answer sheets. Results can only be released after this revaluation.

The bench of Justice Namavarapu Rajeshwara Rao granted eight months’ time for the revaluation process. If revaluation cannot be completed within this period, the court instructed the Telangana State Public Service Commission (TSPSC) to conduct the mains examination again.

The issue began when several candidates alleged irregularities in the valuation of Group-1 mains papers. They approached the High Court, seeking cancellation of the results. After a detailed hearing, the bench reserved judgment on July 7 and has now issued its final directions.

TSPSC had announced the Group-1 mains results in April this year. However, the High Court observed serious lapses in the evaluation process. With the rankings list now scrapped, the commission faces the challenge of completing revaluation or preparing for fresh exams. This ruling has created uncertainty among thousands of aspirants but also raised hopes for a fair process.
