Govt Of Nct Of Delhi & Anr. vs Robin Singh on 25 August, 2010
10. Since the Petitioner's Original Application was clubbed along with a
batch of other Original Applications, in some of which, the issue of
suppression of information regarding involvement of the candidate in
criminal cases had also been raised, the Petitioner preferred a R.A No. 204
of 2015 before the tribunal, pointing out that he had not concealed the fact of
his involvement in the criminal case while filling in the attestation form and
therefore prayed that the OA be allowed. The Tribunal vide its order dated
02.11.2015 once again considered the matter and, after holding that though
it was correct that the Petitioner had not concealed the fact of his
involvement in the criminal case while filling in the attestation form, still
came to the conclusion that in view of the gravity of the charge against the
Petitioner, coupled with the circumstantial factual background-including
recovery of blood stained clothes at his instance, the Screening Committee
could not have adjudged him suitable upon application of the criteria laid
down in Para 42 of its order dated 21.05.2015. The Tribunal, therefore, was
W.P.(C.) No.6012/2017 Page 5 of 13
of the view that remitting the matter back to the department for taking a
fresh decision would be a useless formality and, accordingly , disposed of
the review application with the direction that the factual position indicated in
the order dated 21.05.2015 - that the Petitioner concealed his involvement in
the criminal case in the attestation form, shall not be read as part of the
order.
