Quashing of FIR effects criminal record for govt. job


27-Oct-2023 (In Criminal Law)
If an fir is quashed on grounds of settlement ..does that make one vulnerable for prestigious govt services like ias? one of my lawyer friends says so that settlement proves that you have done something wrong and thus it is a question mark on your character.as these prestigious services hold a very strict discipline they do not allow any one like this to join the service. am preparing for upsc and have an f.i.r against me however am not the real accused and was unnecessarily dragged into the entire incident.now the complainant has understood my concern and she has given her signature on the affidavit that says she does not have any problem with my quashing of f.i.r. (settlement ) however now am concerned that approaching the court on grounds of settlement and getting the fir quashed may hamper my future employment due to above mentioned concern. in this case even though the subject was acquitted the employment was not offered.

Hello sir,
It is just an excuse and high court quashes an FIR only when it seems fit to do so. Once the FIR is quashed no one can say that your record is not clean. Don't worry study properly and crack the exam. Good wishes.

Dear client !
Mere registration of anew FIR is no ground of your ineligibility for any government jog including I AS, unless it leads to conviction. You have not mentioned in your query as to what were the allegations. If the allegations are compoundable then only the lady could withdraw her complaint or else there must be some strong corroborative evidence in your defence. However I could give you better advice if you send me the full details of your case and meet me personally.
