RAJASTHAN HIGH COURT, JODHPUR

ORDER

Jodhpur, January 28, 2026

G.S.R.137 .-Where as the recruitment to Class IV posts under the Rajasthan High

Court Staff Service Rules, 2002 is intended to fill posts involving manual and routine duties in

which higher academic excellence is not required. Experience has shown that candidates

possessing higher educational qualification than the minimum prescribed, often secure

selection due to having academic advantage, thereby displacing candidates possessing only the

minimum prescribed qualification and thus defeating the very object of fixing such eligibility.

Therefore, Candidates possessing only the minimum prescribed qualifications generally

belong to economically and socially weaker sections and are genuinely dependent on such

employment for livelihood and social security, whereas candidates possessing higher

educational qualification tend to leave this job on getting better employment opportunities. So,

in order to ensure that recruitment to Class IV posts remains purpose-oriented, socially just,

and administratively efficient, it has become necessary to accord preference to candidates

possessing lower educational qualifications while preparing the merit list.

In pursuance of Rules 4, 5, 7 & 22 of Rajasthan High Court Staff Service Rules, 2002,

Hon’ble the Acting Chief Justice has been pleased to make the following further amendments

in the office order No. Estt./HC/2001/378 dated 05.12.2002:-

1. Amendment in Clause 33:- After the Existing Explanation to sub clause (3) of Clause

33 of the Order No. Estt./HC/2001/378 dated 05.12.2002, following proviso with

Illustration shall be inserted:-

610 राजèथान राज-पğ, फरवरȣ 05, 2026 भाग 4 (ग)

“Provided that, notwithstanding anything contained herein-above, at the

stage of interview for Class IV posts, preference shall be given to

candidates possessing the minimum prescribed qualification e.g., secondary

school education, over those possessing higher educational qualifications,

within their respective categories.

Illustration:

If candidate ‘A’ possesses only Secondary educational qualification,

candidate ‘B’ possesses Senior Secondary educational qualification, and

candidate ‘C’ possesses Graduate or above qualification, the preference

shall be ‘A’, then ‘B’, and then ‘C’, within their respective categories.”

[No. Estt./HC/2026/47]

By order of Hon’ble the Acting Chief Justice,

Chanchal Mishra,

REGISTRAR GENERAL.
