New Delhi. The Supreme Court made an important remark on Thursday. The country's top court said that the recruitment rules for government jobs cannot be changed midway unless it is predetermined. A five-judge bench headed by Chief Justice DY Chandrachud said that once the 'rules of the game' are decided before the recruitment process begins, they cannot be changed midway. The rules of selection should not be arbitrary but in accordance with Article 14 of the Constitution. The apex court unanimously said that transparency and non-discrimination should be the hallmark of the public recruitment process. The bench also included Justice Hrishikesh Roy, Justice PS Narasimha, Justice Pankaj Mithal and Justice Manoj Mishra.
