Cancellation of job selection by PSU, can they do that
02-Sep-2023 (In Labour & Service Law)
I am from an IIT and I was selected through campus placement by a reputed PSU in september 2016. Now its been one year and it is rumored that they are planning to cancel such selections made. More than 500 students were selected in that company from different reputed institutions. Can the cancel such selections made ? If yes, in that case what we can do?
The Ministry’s Department of Legal Affairs recently reaffirmed that “campus recruitment by PSUs in view of the decision of the High Court of Madras, may be questioned as an unconstitutional way of recruitment to public employment” and it amount to “discrimination”. The recruitments were stopped after the High Court stayed the process following a petition in 2014 seeking a ban on PSUs opting for campus placement at premium or private colleges, thereby excluding students from government institutes.
bombay high court has observed that campus interview method violated the fundamental rights guaranteed under Article 14 (Equality before Law) and Article 16 (Equality of opportunities in matters of public employment) of the Constitution.
now so far your case is concerned, whether the said company has issued the letter of appointment??? if yes ..then file a representation before them and move before High court for an appropriate writ.

Do you have any document regarding your selection? was any appointment letter issued? Technically no PSU can act arbitrarily... so you might have a good case.. however, final opinion will be formed only after seeing the documents in your possession.
