Headnote
ASSOCIATION AND ORS. A v. UNION OF INDIA AND ORS. AUGUST 12, 1994 [M,N. VENKATACHALIAH, 0. ANDS. MOHAN, J.] B Constitution of India, 1950-Articles 32 and 312-Kera/a Judicial Service Rules, 1991-Ru/e 5(3) and 10( 1 )-Kera/a Criminal Judicial Service Rules, 1973. The Supreme Court's directive is pre-requisition for recruitment. If the rules prescribe for a longer standing at the Bar, that does not run counter to the directive. Hence the requirement of five years standing prescribed by Rule 10(1) read D with rule 5(3) of Kerala Service Rules, 1991 is perfectly valid. In All
