Why is the issuance of appointment letters banned?

According to advocate Sanjay Kumar Yadav, the provisional answer key was released by the recruitment board on March 23. While the final answer was released on the day of the written exam result i.e. May 7, the answer to many questions was changed. Candidates objected to this because one question was of 2.5 marks and some candidates failed by some marks. There are also some candidates who were selected in the next process. But when the final result was released on July 14, many candidates failed by some number or two numbers. The candidates had also raised objections to the questions that were changed. But the recruitment board did not consider. On this, the candidates filed petitions. Senior advocates Ashok Khare, advocates Sanjay Kumar Yadav and Alok Mishra argued on the petition.
