Was the decision on merits or had you pleaded guilty? What exactly had been the order imposing the punishment? Were you in jail as a part of punishment or otherwise?

You stand convicted in a case which is professional misconduct for govt employee.
Appointment is purely at the discretion of the deptt where you are selected they may ignore this case or may not.

It is not only illegal but also stupidity and ridiculous to drive after drink and repeat same story time and again.
Consult a local prudent lawyer for better appreciation of facts, guidance and proceeding if you feel dissatisfied with obligation of experts on this platform being FREE OF COST.

With due respect to learned expert Shri Sudhir Kumar it is stated that conviction in a criminal case inheres professional misconduct only if it involves moral turpitude. It is well settled that petty traffic offences do not involve moral turpitude and hence, if at all convicted, do not entail disciplinary proceedings while in service nor is it a impediment in in being appointed in public service.
However, a candidate needs to disclose the true information as and when required. This is generally required at the stage of submitting the attestation form once the candidate is selected for appointment. If at the stage, the competent authority, in its discretion, decides against issuing appointment/posting letter, there always are remedies available, both administrative as well judicial.
As such, the conviction, as stated, need not be botheration at this stage in applying for a job and/or making preparation, therefor.

Devendra Kumar Yadav was acquitted in two Criminal Cases and Delhi Police had denied him the appointment as Constable for this reason
Guest
(Expert) 02 August 2019
But the Honorable Delhi High Court had ordered him the appointment.
Sudhir Kumar, Advocate
(Expert) 03 August 2019
So this is not a case of acquittal.
It would be discretion of the deptt they may appoint him.
So let him get selected and then let this forum know whether deptt ignored this case or not.

This is not such a serious matter that deptt cannot ignore. They may ignore if they so desire.
