Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court dismissed the special leave petition challenging the dismissal of a bank employee for cash shortage, citing that the non-supply of the enquiry report did not cause prejudice to the petitioner. The Court reaffirmed the principle established in Managing Director, ECIL, Hyderabad v. B. Karunakar that a copy of the enquiry report must be supplied to the delinquent employee, but found no illegality in the High Court's decision as the petitioner failed to demonstrate any prejudice. The dismissal of the petition was upheld.
