NEW DELHI:

According to a fresh plea, seven states, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, UP, Punjab, Uttarakhand, West Bengal and Jharkhand, did not allegedly comply with the 2006 judgement of the apex court in the Prakash Singh case and the subsequent directions on appointment of DGP.

The Jharkhand government filed its reply in the top court previously. The matter was brought to the attention of a bench comprising chief justice Sanjiv Khanna and justice Sanjay Kumar through a plea filed by Jan Sewa Trust, alleging widespread violations.

These include the stipulation of a two-year fixed tenure for DGPs and their selection from a panel of the three most senior and eligible IPS officers prepared by the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC).
