Case Study
SSC (CGL) 2019 final result delayed. In this case, the Staff Selection Commission (SSC) was expected to release the final result of the SSC CGL 2019 examination on February 15, 2022. Delay in announcing the result could be seen and no updates regarding the result of SSC CGL 2019 were placed on the official website of SSC. The reason behind this delay in announcing the result is a pending case with the Delhi High Court. Usually, the vacancies are released after the declaration of results but SSC had already published the list of tentative vacancies. Due to this situation, the Staff Selection Commission stated that the commission had already prepared the results but will only publish them once the decision of the Delhi High Court is presented regarding the pending case.
The case was filed on April 20, 2021, by a candidate who was dissatisfied with the declared results. For nearly a year, the date for the case kept on getting postponed and ultimately February 15 was fixed for a hearing. However, the hearing could not take place on the same date and it got postponed to February 21.
