The Allahabad High Court has made a harsh comment on the district magistrates. During this, Justice JJ Munir said that the district magistrate should not function as a post office and should not send the information provided by the police to the appointing authority. You must independently evaluate whether the candidate’s criminal record makes him or her ineligible for the position.
The High Court made this comment.
The High Court said if there is a matrimonial case pending against a person, he cannot be deprived of service. The Court has also commented that public employment is an accelerated process. The opportunities to achieve this reduce with age. It is not fair to expect a candidate to give up their opportunity.
High Court Judge JJ Munir said he should wait years for the trial and when the outcome leads to acquittal, he should regain his eligibility.
