Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the Delhi High Court's decision directing the Commissioner of Police to consider certain candidates for appointment as Constables in the Delhi Police. The court found that the candidates had a legitimate expectation to be considered based on the advertisement issued in 2009, which had not been fulfilled. The judgment emphasized the importance of adhering to the principles of fairness and transparency in public employment.
