U.P.S.C vs K. Rajaiah & Ors

The Supreme Court addressed the validity of the selection process for appointments to the Indian Police Service, as challenged by a Superintendent of Police under Article 226 of the Constitution. The Court held that the Selection Committee's assessment of merit, including ACRs and other relevant materials, was adequate and did not warrant interference. The Court upheld the High Court's decision to quash the Tribunal's order, emphasizing the need for a comprehensive evaluation of service records beyond just ACRs, thereby reinforcing the principle of fair assessment in administrative decisions.
