be charged for murder, and if found guilty
sentenced to death. The 'encounter'
philosophy is a criminal philosophy, and
all policemen must know this. Trigger
happy policemen who think they can kill
innocent
people
in
the
name
of
'encounter' and get away with it should
know that the gallows await them.

There is no force in this petition. It is
dismissed.

14. Let a copy of this order be sent
to the Director General of Police, U.P.
forthwith and the Director General will
send copy of this judgment to all I.G.,
D.I.G., S.S.P. and S.P.s in the State with
the stern direction to comply with this
judgment.

By the Court

1. Heard learned counsel for the
petitioners and learned standing counsel.

2. Petitioners have prayed that a
mandamus
should
be
issued
for
appointing them as Assistant Prosecuting
Officers. It appears that an advertisement
was issued on 23.12.1998 for the said post
vide
Annexure
-1.
The
petitioners
appeared in the said examination and they
passed in the written test and then they
appeared in the interview. The final result
was
prepared

3
containing the names of 99 persons, who
were selected against 99 vacancies.

3. It has been submitted that five of
these 99 persons joined their posts but
they resigned within one year of the life
of the list and hence five persons lower
down in the select list should have been
offered appointments on those posts.
Learned counsel for the petitioners relied
INDIAN LAW REPORTS ALLAHABAD SERIES [2001

on a Division Bench decision of this
Court in Ved Prakash Tripathi vs. State of
U.P. and others, Civil Misc. Writ Petition
No.
32077
of
2000,
decided
on
20.12.2000. In our opinion, the ratio of
that decision will apply to the facts of the
present case. The only difference between
that case and the present case is that in
Civil Misc. Writ Petition No. 32077 of
2000 four vacancies remained on account
of non-joining of four selected persons,
whereas in the present case all the persons
selected joined but five persons later
resigned within one year of the life of the
panel. In our opinion, this distinction will
make no difference and hence the ratio of
the decision of Ved Prakash Tripathi's
case will apply to this case also. Hence
we issue a mandamus to the U.P. Public
Service
Commission,
Allahabad
to
recommend the names of five persons in
accordance with merit as per the select list
and those, person will be appointed
forthwith.

The writ petition is, accordingly
allowed.
