(ii)       If any other private/public agency undertakes recruitment based on the data/ information  so disclosed, the DoPT/concerned  Ministry/ Department or the recruiting agency will not be responsible for any legal matter emanating out of such process.

(iii)       The   concerned   recruiting   agencies   are   responsible   for   the sanctity/integrity  of the process which will be followed by them.
