Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the writ petition filed under Article 32 of the Constitution of India, challenging the appointment process for Haryana Civil Service (Executive Branch) due to the petitioner's belated grievance regarding a vacancy from 1992. The Court held that the selection process, completed in 1996, should not be disturbed after such a long delay, emphasizing the importance of finality in administrative decisions. The petitioner's claims were found to be without merit as he had previously accepted a position in the Haryana Civil Service (Allied Services).
