Headlines 02:13
IMPHAL, August 30: A Single Bench of the High Court of Manipur today referred the case challenging the recruitment rally result for the posts of Sub-Inspector of police (male/civil) and Jemadar to a double bench of the court.
The case (Case No WP (C) No 618 of 2013) was filed on August 26 last by five unselected candidates of the recruitment rally before the High Court of Manipur challenging the final result of the recruitment rally which was conducted from 2010. In an inadvertent error, an earlier IFP news report had stated that the recruitment rally started from 2011.
The final result of the recruitment rally was declared recently after a three year long recruitment rally process. The court admitted the case on the same day it was filed and it was included in the “cause list” of the court today.
The case was tried by a single bench of Chief Justice Abhay Manohar Sapre today. The Chief Justice ordered for the case to be listed in a division bench of the court.
The petitioners have charged that the recruitment rally was conducted in an illegal, arbitrary and un-constitutional manner and that there were large scale irregularities in the entire recruitment process.
According to the notification issued on April 24, 2010 by the Manipur Police Department, Government of Manipur, applications were invited only for 243 posts of Sub-Inspector of Police (SI) and 49 posts for Jemadar.
But when the result was declared, 285 candidates were selected for the post of SI and 59 candidates for the post of Jemadar.
The petitioners have charged that recruiting more numbers then the announced/advertised number is illegal and it is also unconstitutional.
Three candidates who were selected in the written test for the posts of Jemadar were found later in the waiting list of Sub Inspectors when the final result was declared, the petitioners charged.
Besides the above mentioned charges, the petitioners have also mentioned many others irregularities in the recruitment rally in the petition they have submitted to the court.
The petitioners have prayed the court to quash the recently declared result of the recruitment rally and conduct a fresh one.
They have also prayed the court for stay order to the announced result of the recruitment rally, Notification No E-31/29/2010-PHQ (Adm), Imphal dated August 6, 2013 (Annexure-P/3) issued by the Police department, Govt of Manipur.
