They were selected and had to undergo medical examination at which stage the selection process at Motihari, Buxar, Gaya, Jamui and Bokaro & Deoghar were cancelled. No individual was singled out but the entire centre of selection was subject matter of cancellation. As is well known, CBI enquiry has already been ordered for irregularities committed and senior officials of CRPF are being proceeded against. In such an event, in my view, petitioners can have no cause to challenge cancellation of selection process and consequential readvertisement. Petitioners would be at a liberty to apply afresh. Those applications will be considered in accordance with law. With these observations, this application stands disposed of. M.E.H./ (Navaniti Prasad Singh)
