Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan & Ors vs Ram Ratan Yadav on 26 February, 2003

'The consideration which may be relevant to the case is of the antecedents of the candidates. The appointing authority has to focus on this aspect to arrive at a conclusion whether appointment is to be given to the candidates or not. The fact that the post to which the applicants seeks appointments is a post of a teacher which will have some impact on the minds of the students of impressionable age as held by the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Ram Ratan Yadav Case (Supra) according to the respondents also may have to be gone into by the respondents - respondent when the matter is reconsidered.' Therefore, it is clear that the job to which the applicant has applied cannot be ignored while deciding the matter. The jobs like Teacher, Doctor and Police etc. are jobs which involve a position of responsibility in the society and the incumbents holding such posts should possess absolute integrity. A person with criminal antecedents, criminal background or criminal tendency cannot be considered for appointment as teachers or as members of disciplined force getting training in arms and ammunitions.
