STATE OF U.P. . vs LOK PRAHARI . — SLP(C) No. 18569/2012

Case Summary: STATE OF U.P. v. LOK PRAHARI [SLP(C) 18569/2012] The Supreme Court dismissed the State of U.P.'s special leave petition challenging a High Court interim order in a PIL concerning Civil Services Board reconstitution for officer transfers. While acknowledging the State's argument that directions to disclose officer assets and pending corruption cases lacked direct relevance to the PIL's core issue, the Court declined to interfere. The Court left it open for the State to request the High Court reconsider whether such directions should continue or be withdrawn, and directed that if the High Court insists on compliance, it must assign written reasons justifying the relevance of this information at the interim stage.
