DIR.GEN.INDIAN COUNCIL OF MED.R. vs DR.ANIL KUMAR GHOSH

The Supreme Court held that the view of the Calcutta High Court, which stated that even if the charges against the first respondent were true, it would only indicate indiscretion and not misconduct, was incorrect and overruled. The Court emphasized that obtaining benefits from public funds through false certificates constitutes misconduct. The Court also examined whether the principles of natural justice were violated in the departmental enquiry but did not elaborate further on that aspect in this judgment.
