Observing that “a notification inviting applications is not a finish line etched in stone”, the Telangana High Court dismissed a batch of writ petitions challenging the State government’s decision to reserve 30% of Secondary Grade Teacher posts for candidates possessing Diploma in Education (D.Ed) in 2009, days after issuing notification. 

A Bench of Acting Chief Justice P. Sam Koshy and Justice Suddala Chalapathi Rao, pronouncing the verdict, said the “law does not ask the State to freeze its wisdom at the moment of first notification”. On December 6, 2008, the then government of the undivided State of Andhra Pradesh issued a notification to fill up 52,655 teacher posts across the State through District Selection Committees (DSCs).
