Court’s Observations and Decision:
After the hearing, which saw the participation of prominent lawyers, the division bench considered the arguments.
The Court did not find sufficient grounds to allow the miscellaneous application. According to the proceedings, the bench concluded that there was no basis to alter or amend its judgment delivered on April 3rd. Consequently, the miscellaneous application was dismissed by the Court.

However, legal counsel present in court clarified that the review petitions connected to the case have not yet been scheduled for a hearing.
Future Proceedings:
With the miscellaneous application dismissed, the focus now shifts to the pending review petitions. The timeline for when these review petitions will be listed and heard by the Supreme Court is yet to be announced. There is an anticipation that these hearings may not take place before the upcoming court vacation period.
Significance:
The SSC 2016 case remains a matter of considerable public and legal interest. The Supreme Court’s rulings are pivotal in determining the final outcome for the candidates involved and the broader implications for the recruitment process.
