Thus, as per the above condition no.8, the aspirant who was having the requisite experience certificate was entitled to 10% bonus marks for each year's service with a maximum of 30% bonus marks for three years service experience.
During the pendency of the recruitment process, the criteria of bonus marks was altered and it was decided vide communication dated 22.3.2015 that maximum of 15% bonus marks @ 5% each year, would be admissible to the aspirants. (3.) The petitioner claims to have worked under the respondent no.4 Superintendent, Mahatma Gandhi Hospital, Jodhpur on contractual basis between 31.1.2010 to 28.2.2013. He approached the
Superintendent for issuing an experience certificate of 3 years & 29 days service put in by him.
However, the respondent no.4 issued certificate Annex.6 dated 13.3.2013 to the petitioner wherein,
his work experience has been acknowledged for a period of 2 years 11 months 5 days only despite
taking note of the fact that the petitioner worked at the hospital from 31.1.2010 to 28.2.2013. The
petitioner has raised a grievance that the issuance of the erroneous certificate caused him a loss of
5% bonus marks, thus, depriving him from appointment in the questioned recruitment process. He served a legal notice to the competent authorities but they did not respond to the same. Upon this,
the petitioner has approached this Court by way of this writ petition.;
