These were the original GOs

However there was a GO (D) No 95 dated 05.02.2005 in which CMOs/CMCs who had cleared regular TNPSC 2005 were permitted to appear for TNPG 2008 as Service Candidates if they had completed 3 years of Service

WP No 4016 & 4147/2008
MP. Nos.1,1,2,3,5,6/2008

The Order reads as below

1. This court heard the learned counsel on either side and also perused the material records place

2. All 213 candidates who relies on GO.Ms.No.95 daated 05.02.2008 are selected by TNPSC only on 29.06.2006, though they worked on contract basis from 2004 onwards.

It is seen from previous GO.Ms.No 197 dated 07.06.2004 and GO.Ms.No 31 dated 03.03.2005 and also in the agreement dated 20.11.2006 entered into them with the government that it is categorically found mentioned that the said persons are not eligible to apply for PG course as service candidates. Hence, the said 213 persons cannot be treated as service candidates. Based on this order, seat can be filled up and posting be made.

These writ petitions are disposed of accordingly.
No Costs.
