THIS petition questions the correctness of the impugned judgment of the Central Administrative Tribunal, Allahabad Bench in an application filed by the respondent no.2 Rajesh Kumar Singh, whereby the Tribunal has proceeded to allow the claim of the respondent no.2, as in the opinion of the Tribunal, the petitioner -Staff Selection Commission inspite of having ample time had failed to act upon the justification for cancellation of the candidature of the respondent no.2, and has further proceeded to extend the benefit of the results declared on 26.3.1994 to the respondent no.2 who was declared successful in the written examination for the post of Divisional Accountant/Auditor/Upper Division Clerk etc.

(2.) THE facts necessary for consideration are that the respondent no.2 Rajesh Kumar Singh was an applicant against the advertisement in the year 1992 published by the petitioner - Staff Selection Commission for appointment on the post of Divisional Accountant/Auditor/Upper Division Clerk etc. The respondent was assigned a particular roll number and he appeared in the written examination on 14.3.1993 from a centre at an institution at Allahabad.
