A clear acquittal, not a technical one: Rajasthan HC holds non-disclosure of acquittal not fatal to appointment
The Court held that the rejection of candidature of the petitioner on the sole ground of non-disclosure of prior criminal proceedings where petitioner was acquitted, was contrary to law propounded in Avtar Singh case, as no criminal proceedings were pending against the petitioner and he was acquitted prior to the commencement of the recruitment process.
