The Punjab and Haryana High Court has rejected a petition challenging the recent recruitment of Assistant District Attorneys in Haryana, ruling that the petitioner lacks standing to contest the process.
The Punjab and Haryana High Court delivered its verdict on a petition that sought to halt the recruitment of Assistant District Attorneys in Haryana. The bench held that the petitioner did not have the requisite legal standing to question the selection process, and therefore dismissed the challenge outright.
The recruitment drive, announced earlier this year, aims to fill vacant Assistant District Attorney posts across the state’s district courts. The selection procedure was conducted under the guidelines issued by the Haryana government and overseen by the state's judicial administration.
In its judgment, the court emphasized that procedural fairness and transparency were maintained throughout the recruitment. It noted that the petitioner failed to demonstrate any direct injury or violation of statutory provisions that would justify judicial intervention.
With the challenge dismissed, the recruitment process is expected to continue uninterrupted, allowing the selected candidates to assume their duties as Assistant District Attorneys in the coming weeks.
