PAWAN SINGH Vs. DISTRICT JUDGE AGRA

Decided On January 23, 1987
Pawan Singh and Ors. Appellant
V/S
District Judge and Anr. Respondents

JUDGEMENT

(1.) WE dismissed this petition on 20th January, 1987 and ordered that the reasons would be given later. So, now we proceed to give our reasons.

(2.) THE Petitioner prays for a writ of certiorari quashing the order dated 4th December, 1984 passed by the District Judge, Agra cancelling the list of selected candidates, and for a writ of mandamus directing him to make appointments to the posts in the ministerial staff from the list of selected candidates prepared in 1980.

(3.) THE writ petition is opposed by the Respondents. Their contention is that under the rules the list could not be continued for more than a year and it was rightly cancelled by the District Judge.
