Kochi, Mar 12 (UNI) The Kerala High Court today issued notice to Kerala Public Service Commission Secretary Shivaja Das and directed her to appear before the court on March 15 and show cause why contempt action should not be taken against her.
Justice A K Basheer gave the order while considering a contempt petition filed by M B Preetha of Ernakulam, who had earlier filed a writ petition challenging the shortlist published by the KPSC to the post of Law College lecturers.
In that writ petition, the court had issued an interim order, directing the KPSC to call the petitioner for interview for the said post.
However, this was not done by the KPSC, which published the final rank list excluding the petitioner's name, against which the petitioner filed the contempt plea.
