Paper publication mandatory for marks and selection: High court denies relief, Doctor denied assistant professor job
The Patna High Court has dismissed a writ petition filed by a doctor challenging the Bihar Public Service Commission's (BPSC) decision to withhold 10 marks for journal publication during the selection process for an Assistant Professor position in Obstetrics and Gynecology.
Upholding the BPSC's decision, Justice Bibek Chaudhuri emphasized that the selection criteria clearly stipulated marks for "published" research papers, not merely those accepted for publication. The Court further clarified that the mere acceptance of a paper for publication does not equate to its actual publication.
