[Civil Appeal Nos.8606-8610 of 2015 arising out of Special Leave Petition (Civil) Nos.8157-8161 of 2014]. Applications for Impleadment/ Intervention are allowed. The refusal of the High Court to interfere with the result of the 53rd to 55th Combined (Mains) Competitive Examinations, 2011 held by the Bihar Public Service Commission (hereinafter referred to as "the Commission") in May-June, 2012 is the subject matter of challenge in the present appeals. The principal basis on which interference of the High Court was sought is that in finalizing the results of the Examination the Commission had moderated the marks awarded by the examiners who had scrutinized the answer-sheets of the candidates instead of scaling down the said marks which process was required to be undergone in view of the fact that the examinations, so far as the optional papers are concerned, were in different subjects.
