Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the selection process for Police Constables in Uttar Pradesh, specifically concerning candidates accused of using whitener or similar tools during examinations. The Court noted that the appellants' rights were previously established in Hanuman Dutt Shukla & Ors. Vs. State of Uttar Pradesh, but declined to intervene further as the matter was pending before the High Court. The Court requested the High Court to expedite the resolution of the pending writ petitions within three months, allowing other similarly situated candidates to pursue their remedies as well.
