Amit Bhati & Ors. v. Commissioner of Police & Anr.
Case brief
What is this about?
Delhi High Court dismisses writ petitions challenging CAT order dated 12.12.2025 rejecting grievances about conduct of the 1600 meter race in PE & MT stage of Delhi Police Examination 2023 for Constable (Executive) posts; complaint that candidates ran in one single horizontal line, losing headstart and momentum, disputed by Respondents; writ interference confined to cases of perversity; plausible view by CAT not to be disturbed; selected candidates already appointed; bench Justices Anil Kshetarpal and Amit Mahajan; decided 16.02.2026; pending applications closed.
What did the court decide?
While exercising writ jurisdiction, the Court is not expected to interfere unless there is perversity; there might be some room for diligence and exactitude, but that cannot be made a basis to interfere in a writ petition, particularly when a plausible view has already been taken by the CAT.
