The Madhya Pradesh High Court has imposed a stay on the amendments made on August 13 to the OT technician recruitment process, and has issued notices to the state government and other parties for a response.
The single‑bench of the Madhya Pradesh High Court issued an interim order on August 13, halting the recent changes introduced in the recruitment procedure for OT technicians. The court’s stay prevents the revised rules from being implemented until a final decision is rendered.
A petition challenging the mid‑process modifications was filed by aggrieved candidates, alleging that the alterations violated established recruitment norms and could unfairly affect the selection outcome.
In its order, the bench directed the state government and other concerned authorities to submit their responses within a stipulated timeframe, signalling that the matter will be examined in detail before any further action.
The recruitment drive, crucial for staffing government hospitals across Madhya Pradesh, now remains in limbo pending the court’s final verdict, underscoring the judiciary’s role in overseeing administrative procedures.
