The TGPSC stated that the information possessed by the candidate was unrelated to any of the questions, resulting in the decision to disallow the candidate from continuing the examination.
Several candidates who appeared for the examination, in various centres in the city noted that the question paper was set at a standard comparable to that of Class X.
The bench, led by Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud, noted that students had already arrived at examination centers and felt that issuing an interim order at this stage would cause "substantial dislocation" in conducting the exam, which the bench was unwilling to do.
