IN THE HIGH COURT OF UTTARAKHAND AT NAINITAL Writ Petition No. 959 of 2011 (S/S) Dheeraj Dhiman. ………..Petitioner. Versus Director General of Police and others. ………Respondents. Present: Mr. B.S. Parihar, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr. H.M. Raturi, Standing Counsel for the State of Uttarakhand. Hon’ble Sudhanshu Dhulia, J.(Oral) Heard Mr. B.S. Parihar, Advocate for the petitioner and Mr. H.M. Raturi, Standing Counsel for the State of Uttarakhand. The petitioner was applicant for the post of constable in Civil Police /P.A.C. in the State of Uttarakhand. These appointments were district cadre appointments as it is evident from the advertisement dated 22.11.2010. The posts which were advertised in the State of Uttarakhand were in reference to each district. Furthermore, specific condition was stipulated in condition no. 18 of the advertisement that one candidate shall apply for only one centre, meaning one district centre, and in case he applies for more than one centre, his applications will be rejected. Apart from that, the advertisement also prescribes a certificate, which has to be given by an applicant inter alia stating that he has not applied for any other centre except one centre. 2 By means of the present writ petition, the petitioner has prayed for a writ order or direction in the nature of Certiorari quashing the order 24.05.2011 passed by respondent no. 3 whereby the candidature of the petitioner has been rejected on the ground that petitioner has applied for two district centres. It is an admitted fact that the petitioner has applied for more than one centre. Petitioner also claims that there have been cases where the candidature of the person who has applied for two centres has been entertained. Be that as it may, no relief can be granted to the petitioner as there is a categorical prohibition for applying in two centers. Further, two wrongs do not make a right and in case the wrong has been committed by the State Authorities, a writ of Certiorari cannot be issued to State Authorities to commit the wrong again as has clearly been stated in a decision of Hon’ble Supreme Court namely Directorate of Film Festivals and others Vs. Gaurav Ashwin Jain and others (2007) 4 SCC 737. The writ petition is, therefore, dismissed. No order as to costs. (Sudhanshu Dhulia, J.) 01.08.2011 SKS
