There was no ambiguity and\/or confusion in the advertisement providing educational qualification and the post for which the applications were invited (History\/Civics). Hence, there cannot be any deviation from the educational qualifications mentioned in the advertisement.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court observed that once having found that the respective candidates were not having the requisite qualification as per the advertisement, namely, the Postgraduate\/Bachelor degree in History, which was the requirement as per the advertisement and thereafter their candidature was canceled, both the learned Single Judge as well as the Division Bench of the High Court hadrightly refused to interfere with the same.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is pertinent to note that show-cause notices were issued so that the respective candidates can clarify and satisfy that they are having the requisite qualification of Postgraduate\/Bachelor degree in History and after giving them the opportunity, the decision has been taken and that too after obtaining the Expert Committee\u2019s opinion.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Hence, it was held that the candidature\/selection of the candidates was rightly cancelled on the ground that they were not having the requisite qualification for the post \u2013 Postgraduate\/Bachelor degree in History.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">[Indresh Kumar Mishra v.
