[Civil Appeal No. 2634 of 2013 arising out of SLP (C) No.12406 of 2011]. [Civil Appeal No. 2635 of 2013 arising out of SLP (C) No.18102 of 2012]. [Civil Appeal No. 2636 of 2013 arising out of SLP (C) No.20706 of 2011]. Leave granted" the rules of the game the criteria for selection cannot be altered by the authorities concerned in the middle or after the process of selection has commenced "[1]" changing the rules of the game after the game was played is clearly impermissible"[2]. The above, and statements to the similar effect have petrified into a rule of law in the context of employment under the State or its instrumentalities. Whether such principle of law is immutable, what are those 'rules of the game' which cannot be changed after the game is either commenced or played, in our opinion requires an authoritative pronouncement by a larger Bench of this Court.

It appears that under the Rajasthan High Court Staff Service Rules, 2002, "eligible candidates" are required to appear for a Written Examination consisting of two papers of translation from English to Hindi and vice versa carrying 100 marks each followed by a Personal Interview for 50 marks.
