Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the Board had the authority to cancel the shot-firing certificate based on the Regional Inspector's report, despite the Inspector's lack of power to recommend suspension. The Court emphasized that the Board's independent power to act is not undermined by procedural nuances, and that natural justice is context-dependent. The High Court's ruling was overturned, affirming the Board's decision as valid and lawful under the relevant regulations.
