Justice Sameer Jain, in a strongly worded judgment, said the recruitment process was tainted by "illegality and fraud on the system" and criticised the state government for failing to act decisively despite mounting evidence.

"It is strange that the state government did not take any decision on the subject. The court's ruling should serve as a deterrent for the gangs playing with the future of youths," said senior advocate Major R P Singh, who represented the petitioners.

Exam At Centre Of Political Storm The recruitment process, which had advertised 859 posts for sub-inspectors and platoon commanders, became a flashpoint between the BJP and Congress governments.
