GUWAHATI HIGH COURT QUASHES APPOINTMENT OF 935 CONSTABLES; ORDERS FRESH RECRUITMENT

In a major setback for the state government, the Gauhati High Court, Kohima Bench, has quashed the appointment of 935 police constables who were recruited between January 2018 and October 2019 without advertisement. The court’s ruling, issued on Friday by Justice Devashis Baruah, directed the state government to initiate a fresh recruitment process by advertising the posts in prominent local newspapers.The verdict came in response to a writ petition filed by “unemployed youth” from Kohima and Chümoukedima districts in 2022. The petitioners challenged the appointments, arguing that they were made arbitrarily through “backdoor appointments” without proper advertisement. Justice Baruah ordered that fresh recruitment should be carried out at the earliest, preferably within six months, and that the new process must follow legal procedures, including the issuance of advertisements in widely circulated newspapers. The court, however, allowed the individuals whose appointments were quashed to participate in the new selection process. They will receive a relaxation in the upper age limit, but the court emphasized that there will be no relaxation in terms of basic qualifications or the departmental physical criteria.

Thank you so much to the petitioners for your sacrifice. I hope and pray that State Government will advertise those 935 posts at the earliest. 935 individuals will lose their illegal job but 935 unemployed youths will get legal appointments and a better future
