The company interviewed and tested the candidates and selected Mr. Anil, the 4th most senior Assistant Engineer, for the Chief Engineer role. However, the 3 more senior Assistant Engineers contested this in court, arguing that the selection was invalid as Mr. Anil was not the most senior candidate.
