The Telangana High Court has granted an interim stay on a Central Administrative Tribunal (CAT) order that had quashed the appointment of Dr. Jaiteerth R. Joshi as Director General of BrahMos Aerospace. The CAT's decision was based on a plea by Dr. Sivasubramaniam Nambi Naidu, who argued his seniority was overlooked. The High Court has given parties time to file replies, with the Union of India suggesting a longer tenure was a consideration in Joshi's selection.
